Agreed and initially I have implemented using BDF only instead of using dummy device.
But using that approach, I was not able to use existing APIs to get devargs and ignore device.
I had to write almost same functions to solve the purpose. So just to avoid having replica of
same code, I followed this approach. Please suggest.

Okay but If I go with BDF one then this change is not required anyway.
