I'd prefer not to put it in dell-wmi. There's no logical association 
between it and the rest of the code there, so it'd just be overhead on 
the majority of systems. With the exception of cases where the event and 
functional interfaces are different GUIDs, I'd prefer a one GUID per 
driver model.
