I think we should also have a generic BusState with a name and a list of 
devices attached (maybe more).  Then have "BusState *bus" instead of 
"void *bus".  Then you can actually walk the device tree in common code, 
for example have a "info devtree" monitor command printing all devices 
of the machine.
