+ This protocol can be used on any device handle to obtain generic path/location
+ information concerning the physical device or logical device. If the handle does
+ not logically map to a physical device, the handle may not necessarily support
+ the device path protocol. The device path describes the location of the device
+ the handle is for. The size of the Device Path can be determined from the structures
+ that make up the Device Path.
