The new Nova[1] NVIDIA GPU driver exposes GPUs as logical devices on an auxbus. Currently libdrm doesn't support auxbus, so it ignores Nova GPUs during enumeration. This adds support for devices on an auxbus. Rather than follow the lead of virtio and resolve the logical auxbus device back to the physical PCI device, we add a new bus type and associated parser. This is because in the future a single physical GPU may present multiple auxbus devices, so it needs to be possible to resolve individual devices even if they share the same parent GPU.
