It doesnt cleanly fit the Linux model is one good reason why not. However
if someone has some UDI drivers handy and wants to write the porting layers
go for it.

(Ditto for MS btw - I looked hard at an NDIS->Linux wrappers at one point
but NDIS has a totally foreign buffer management philsophy and excess layers)
