What are the .args intended to be used for? I actually had it in mind to
replace this with a simple pointer to a struct software_node, because I
can't see any users of them and the fact that it's actually storing a
pointer to a new variable is something that confused me for a good long
time when I wrote the cio2-bridge (though that's mostly due to my
relative inexperience of course, but still)
