That get's really annoying in code that is meant to deal with multiple
chips. I don't think finding the network or serial node that
corresponds to u-boot's enumeration is what it's meant for, either, but
pretty much any alternative you can come up with has someone saying that
it's not what *that* was meant for, either.
