Ton of emails convinced me that devfs could be useful (even if I don' t
need it now, and it' s not useful due the fast file lookup in /dev/). I
would like more devfs if it would be more clean/simple to register a
device in devfs. A new thing I noticed is that void * are used in some
places, why not to use a type != void to allow C to detect cast bugs?
