### RMCreateDevice - Remarks

When a device is registered, a list of resource handles (representing hardware resources used by this device) can be assigned optionally to the device.

Information about the device being registered is passed in a DEVICESTRUCT.

Resources are usually assigned to the adapter (parent) that owns the device . In some cases, resources are used specifically by a particular device rather than shared between multiple devices supported by an adapter. In this case, resources should be assigned to the device, as appropriate.
