Every driver just emits a static string, simply add a field to the
mdev_type for the driver to fill out or fall back to the sysfs name and
provide a standard sysfs show function.

What am I missing? I can not find where the the driver sets the 
mdev_type.pretty_name field by the vfio_ap device driver.
