Thanks for catching. That's from the first cspmu version and got 
accidentally back there. The rest of the patch looks like what it was 
supposed to be though.

Sure, makes sense.

Sure, I'll do that.

Didn't appear in my mind when I wrote the submodule. I'll change it.

Releasing devices would eventually require a release hook too to support 
reusing the IDs but we can add that later.

I don't really have preference on either way. I remove the aligment and 
combine those two lines.

I agree, I fix it.
