I had to double check.  Events are mandatory on devices.  On checking
again interrupt support is mandatory as well.  So that is why I errored
out here.  With real HW this should not be an issue.

That is the commit you need but it is probably best to use one of
Jonathans 'official' branches.  Looks like he just pushed a new one today.

I've not run that one yet.  So if you have issues try his previous one it
is working well for me.
