Yeah, though it's not 100% clear to me that the multiple calls to
startup() are a bad thing - if the driver does need to coordinate
between multiple possible links then this gives it an opportunity to
handle that.  On the other hand it's likely to be easier for drivers
that do allocations on startup() if there are separate callbacks for
first reference and for each use.

Explicitly written in individual drivers rather than being factored out
or otherwise using common code.
