this in my tree for a while and in its disabled state there are no
issues. It isn't enabled yet because some drivers (in acpi) have side
effects in their probe routines that need to be resolved in some
manner before this can be turned on. The consensus at the last
developer's summit was to provide a static method for each driver
class that will return characteristics of the driver, one of which is

classes and if a method is not found in a given class, its base classes
are searched (in the order they were declared). This search is recursive,
i.e. a method may be define in a base class of a base class.
* Change the kobj method lookup algorithm to one which is SMP-safe. This
relies only on the constraint that an observer of a sequence of writes
of pointer-sized values will see exactly one of those values, not a
mixture of two or more values. This assumption holds for all processors
which FreeBSD supports.
* Add locking to kobj class initialisation.
* Add a simpler form of 'inheritance' for devclasses. Each devclass can
have a parent devclass. Searches for drivers continue up the chain of
devclasses until either a matching driver is found or a devclass is
reached which has no parent. This can allow, for instance, pci drivers
to match cardbus devices (assuming that cardbus declares pci as its
parent devclass).
* Increment __FreeBSD_version.
This preserves the driver API entirely except for one minor feature used
by the ISA compatibility shims. A workaround for ISA compatibility will
be committed separately. The kobj and newbus ABI has changed - all modules
must be recompiled.

Otherwise, select always returned '2' when there were no items to be

1) Record all device events when devctl is enabled, rather than just when
devd has devctl open. This is necessary to prevent races between when
a device arrives, and when devd starts.
2) Add hw.bus.devctl_disable to disable devctl, this can also be set as a
tunable.
3) Fix async support. Reset nonblocking and async_td in open. remove
async flags.
4) Free all memory when devctl is disabled.

Ignoring a NULL dev in device_set_ivars() sounds wrong, KASSERT it to
non-NULL instead.
Do the same for device_get_ivars() for reasons of symmetry, though
it probably would have yielded a panic anyway, this gives more precise
diagnostics.
