yes there are atleast 2 calls to get a hint searched by an extension
using ao2_find. i dont know if it would be that expensive just for the
hint container but maybe thats another 100 usec we can save ;)

thats what i have done by using a container for the devices which each
has a link to its hint. By using a hash with the devicename i will get
multiple objects but i want all of them cause i need every hint which
links to this device.
this solution also makes it possible to use very long devices names or
many multiple devices in one hint.

i will bring this both patches together and maybe can put it into
reviewboard tomorrow.
