Stopping the Driver Module: nbcsModuleStop
This function disconnects the RTOS resources from the chipset driver. This involves de-allocating
semaphores and timers, and freeing-up buffers. If there are any registered devices,
is called for each.
Adding a Device: nbcsAdd
This function verifies the presence of a new device in the hardware and then returns a handle
back to the user. The device handle is passed as a parameter of most of the device API functions.
It is used by the driver to identify the device on which the operation is to be performed.
