Lua would be good. Device drivers need not be all about high performance especially for initial development. Lua would be fast enough for plenty of purposes.

  NetBSD has Lua support.[1] Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a lot of published material on it. One interesting application I found was secmodel_sandbox[2] which used it to implement something similar to AppArmor.

    FreeBSD also.

      My understanding is that FreeBSD only uses Lua in the bootloader. Has it made its way into the kernel too?
