* New machine independant /dev/null and /dev/zero driver. This device ismarkm2000-06-251-0/+137
severely stripped down compared with its predecessor, and is measurably a _lot_ faster. Many thanks to Jeroen van Gelderen for lots of good ideas. There is still a problem with this; it is written as a mudule, and as such is theoretically unloadable. However, there is no refcounting done as I would prefer to do that a'la device_busy(9), rather than some "home-rolled" scheme. The point is pretty moot, as /dev/null is effectively compulsory.
