No, you still want the "mmf" layer to attach "found" devices at a
given port/subunit to, which would then attach e.g. mkbd, mms, mctlr,
etc. to each of its functions.
It's similar to how the original 4.4BSD/sparc SCSI code worked (attached
a "target" to each found target, and then attached "sd", "st", etc. to
each LUN on the target).
