Multiplexer calls are an extremly bad idea.
Okay, i prefer type safety too, but i also don't like too many functions...
What do you think about that:
enum i2o_notify { ADD = 0; REMOVE = 1; }
i2o_notify_controller(enum i2o_notify, struct i2o_controller *); i2o_notify_device(enum i2o_notify, struct i2o_device *);
