Hmmm, I know this is your code, but are you sure? 8-). My understanding of
dkmodslice() and friends is that they manipulate dev_t entries, but don't
actually initialise them. Since the subr_diskslice code takes a dev_t
and goes off and accesses the raw partition entry, my guess is that
vnopen() should check if the raw entry has been initialised, and if
not do it, just like it does for the one you open.
