While there, use "property" rather than "option", for consistency with
-global.

Add device @var{driver}. Depending on the device type,
@var{option} (with default or given @var{value}) may be useful.
To get a help on possible @var{driver}s, @var{option}s or @var{value}s, use
@code{-device ?},
@code{-device @var{driver},?} or
@code{-device @var{driver},@var{option}=?}.

Add device @var{driver}. @var{prop}=@var{value} sets driver
properties. Valid properties depend on the driver. To get help on
possible drivers and properties, use @code{-device ?} and
@code{-device @var{driver},?}.
