I think it should be avoided at all costs. With proplists, you give up type
safety
and you create a lot of overhead. This is acceptable for kernel-user interfaces
in some cases but not within the kernel.
So would it be appropriate for me to expose sysmon_envsys's "global
mutex" and its device list in order for acpi_apm to scan for battery
sensors and A/C adapters?
