Yes, but what I mean is to have i2c/spi symbols visible and if user
selects one of them or both the core is automatically being selected.

But it does not use it. It uses an opaque pointer, for which the
forward declaration is enough to have.

But why? Have you looked into device.h? It's a mess. You don't need it
in this header.

I haven't deeply checked, I believe for the next version you will
provide a better list.

For sure, yes.
