I suggest:

   device_filter_{streambuf,stream}

instead of:

   device_{streambuf,stream}

because the following:

   libs/iostreams/doc/policy_based_streams.html

contains:

   which performs i/o by delegating to a contained instance of a policy
   class. The policy class must model one of the various Filter or Device
   concepts.

Or maybe shorten to:

   devfilt_{buf,stream}
