complementing the existing special case of a not existing /dev prefix
with the recognition of an already existing /dev prefix.
This implicitly solves the following two issues related to working on
GEOM devices /dev/foo/bar (which have the GEOM provider name "foo/bar")
with the expected commands like "bsdlabel /dev/foo/bar":
1. the error "Geom not found" when trying to write or edit the BSD
label (because previously the incorrect GEOM name "bar" instead of
"foo/bar" was derived from "/dev/foo/bar").
2. the multiple times reported "magically introduced" partition offset
of 63 blocks and the resulting errors like "partition extends past
end of unit" and "partition c doesn't start at 0!".
This implicitly resulted because bsdlabel(8) determines the "MBR
offset" via GEOM and (intentionally) silently falls back to an offset
of 0 if it could not be queried (which is the case if the name was
incorrectly derived).
Usually (at least on PCs) the offset for the first slice is 63 blocks
and bsdlabel(8) automatically subtracts them from the absolute
offsets in the read on-disk BSD label, resulting in the display of an
effective offset of 0. If the GEOM query fails, the assumed offset of
0 is subtracted and an incorrect effective offset of 63 is displayed
and tried to be worked upon.

more flags in the future, adding a single list item is going to be
easy and all the flags are going to be in one place.

out the cost of the callback since the callback doesn't serve much purpose for
mbufs since mbuf loads will never be deferred. This is just for amd64 and

queue and (possibly) unlocking the containing object from
vm_page_alloc() to vm_page_select_cache(). Recent optimizations to
vm_map_pmap_enter() (see vm_map.c revisions 1.362 and 1.363) and
pmap_enter_quick() have resulted in panic()s because vm_page_alloc()
mistakenly unlocked objects that had not been locked by
vm_page_select_cache().
