I do not. I meant being able to send whatever I want to the device
itself. I don't know if it needs access to the bus where the device is.
I suspect it only needs to be able to tell to the bus driver what to
send to the specified device.

e.g. if I can hotplug my own SCSI disk, I don't need to deal myself with
the SCSI bus. All I need is the bus sending whatever I tell it to, but
only to my device.

Maybe it's already to much, given the design of SCSI, IDE or USB bus,
I've no knowledge of that part.

Specifically,
Nowhere man
 
BTW: your MUA is broken, adding some illegal headers about threads but
not the standards one, thus breaking threads, at least in my MUA, which
is not very comfortable in such ramified discussions...
