1) It is not useful to call "devfs_clear_cdevpriv()" from
"d_close" callbacks, hence for example read, write, ioctl and
so on might be sleeping at the time of "d_close" being called
and then then freed private data can still be accessed.
Examples: dtrace, linux_compat, ksyms (all fixed by this patch)
2) In sys/dev/drm* there are some cases in which memory will
be freed twice, if open fails, first by code in the open
routine, secondly by the cdevpriv destructor. Move registration
of the cdevpriv to the end of the drm open routines.
3) devfs_clear_cdevpriv() is not called if the "d_open" callback
registered cdevpriv data and the "d_open" callback function
returned an error. Fix this.

It seems the D_PSEUDO flag was meant to allow make_dev() to return NULL.
Nowadays we have a different interface for that; make_dev_p(). There's
no need to keep it there.
While there, remove an unneeded D_NEEDMINOR from the gpio driver.

This replaces d_mmap() with the d_mmap2() implementation and also
changes the type of offset to vm_ooffset_t.
Purge d_mmap2().
All driver modules will need to be rebuilt since D_VERSION is also
bumped.

get a quick snapshot of the kernel's symbol table including the symbols
from any loaded modules (the symbols are all merged into one symbol
table). Unlike like other implementations, this ksyms driver maps
memory in the process memory space to store the snapshot at the time
/dev/ksyms is opened. It also checks to see if the process has already
a snapshot open and won't allow it to open /dev/ksyms it again until it
closes first. This prevents kernel and process memory from being
exhausted. Note that /dev/ksyms is used by the lockstat(1) command.
