5Bus:
6obio	-  Devices on the motherboard, accessed by having their "registers"
7	   mapped into the kernel's virtual address space
8obctl	-  Devices on the motherboard accessible only via the 'CONTROL' space,
9	   and supporting instructions on the m68k.
10obmem	-  Devices on the motherboard that are mapped into main memory
11	   by the hardware.  Only true of some framebuffers.
12mainbus -  An imaginary bus on which obio, obctl, obmem, and the prom device
13	   all reside.
