How about a quickfix for the moment. This ought to do the job. BTW I
disagree that the link should be to first, it would be best a link to the
active driver IMHO.
Has been Torvalds-tested only (ie it compiled)

Ideally we should have a directory of drivers and a link to the 'active'
driver. For now just show the first device which is effectively the existing
semantics without a warning.
