  Other than "-" and ".", no special characters (such as accented characters, spaces, 
brackets) are permitted in the name of an IO device. 
  The device name must not begin or end with the "-" character. 
  The device name must not begin with a number. 
  Maximum total length of 240 characters (lowercase characters, numbers, hyphen, or 
period). 
  A name component within the device name, e.g. a string between two periods, must 
not exceed 63 characters. 
  The device name must not take the form n.n.n.n (n = 0, ... 999). 
  The device name must not begin with the character sequence "port-xyz" or "port-xyz-
abcde" (a, b, c, d, e, x, y, z = 0, ... 9).
