d56b4cd4ac - Use make_dev_credf(MAKEDEV_REF) instead of the race-prone make_dev()+
dev_ref() in the clone handlers that still use it.
- Don't set SI_CHEAPCLONE flag, it's not used anywhere neither in devfs
(for anything real)

d3ce832719 Remove unit2minor() use from kernel code.
When I changed kern_conf.c three months ago I made device unit numbers
equal to (unneeded) device minor numbers. We used to require
bitshifting, because there were eight bits in the middle that were
reserved for a device major number. Not very long after I turned
dev2unit(), minor(), unit2minor() and minor2unit() into macro's.
The unit2minor() and minor2unit() macro's were no-ops.

We'd better not remove these four macro's from the kernel, because there
is a lot of (external) code that may still depend on them. For now it's
harmless to remove all invocations of unit2minor() and minor2unit().
