Bindings are for hardware, not drivers, so if the device serves the same
purpose, it's driver differences do not matter.

Since you do not have children here, it's not really a bus to fit under
bus directory...

hypervisor interfaces directory. We do not create directories for
specific solutions (implementations) with only one or few bindings.
Directories are for entire classes.
