Add a host device to the container. The format is `<device-on-host>[:<device-on-container>][:<permissions>]` (e.g. --device=/dev/sdc:/dev/xvdc:rwm)
Note: if the user only has access rights via a group then accessing the device
from inside a rootless container will fail. The `crun` runtime offers a
workaround for this by adding the option `--annotation io.crun.keep_original_groups=1`.

### 20) Passed-in device can't be accessed in rootless container
As a non-root user you have group access rights to a device that you want to
pass into a rootless container with `--device=...`.
#### Symptom
Any access inside the container is rejected with "Permission denied".
#### Solution
The runtime uses `setgroups(2)` hence the process looses all additional groups
the non-root user has. If you use the `crun` runtime, 0.10.4 or newer,
then you can enable a workaround by adding `--annotation io.crun.keep_original_groups=1`
to the `podman` command line.
