     * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.ini}
     * [type=b200]
     * master_clock_rate=20e6

     * [serial=f42f9b] ; Let's assume this is another B200
     * master_clock_rate=10e6
     * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     * If get_usrp_args() gets called with "type" key equal to "b200", it will
     * first apply the `master_clock_rate=20e6` settings, as if they had been
     * passed in as device args into the initialization sequence. If the device
     * happens to have the serial number listed above, i.e., "serial" equals
     * "f42f9b", then the new value `master_clock_rate=10e6` will get applied.
     *
     * If the user actually specified their own value of `master_clock_rate`,
     * that value would get applied.
     *
     *
     * \param user_args After getting the device args from the config
     *                  files, all of these key/value pairs will be applied
     *                  and will overwrite the settings from config files
     *                  if they exist.
