Yeah, that's true. But it would be nice to have a separate type faux::Device for
that, just like the C struct faux_device only exists to make this obvious given
that it's defined as follows.

struct faux_device {
	struct device dev;
};

But I don't think we need that right away. Having a faux::Registration with
as_raw() should be enough for now.
