I'll likely poke around a bit more, but I can probably live with something along these lines. My objection to exposing stuff like the HCC, ISOC, and ARBC registers is that my gut feel is that it would be a pain to handle them getting changed arbitrarily from userspace inside the driver, especially if someone does the work to make it RSS capable.
