Hello, Albert.

Yeap, this host_set->next thing is a temporary solution and we need to 
handle legacy ports in one host_set.  I've seen Unicorn's patches.  I 
agree that those are in the right direction but we seem to need more 
clean up in driver initialization code.  I'll look into it once the next 
iteration of PMP patches are finished.

Thanks.
