Log Message:
First pass at updating the cgd(4) driver for use with localcount(9)
ref-counts.
So far all I've done is to manage the ref-counts. This will defer
removal of the driver from the devsw tables and/or the autoconf tree
while anyone has a reference to any of the device's critical data
(mostly, the softc or the device_t). Note that these ref-counts will
only defer the removal; once the references are released, the removal
will proceed.
On-going work is needed to identify potentially blocking operations,
and to deny any removals if such operations are in-flight. We really
shouldn't be waiting (possibly indefinitely) for these operations to
complete, especially since removals could be attempted by the module(9)
subsystem while holding the kernel_config lock.
