... and one more - devfs_unregister() on a directory happening when mknod() in that directory sleeps in create_entry() (on kmalloc()).
Do you ever read your own code? It's not like this stuff was hard to find - I'm just poking into random places and every damn one contains a hole. Sigh...
Oh, BTW - here's another one: think what happens if tree-walking in unregister() steps on the entry we are currently removing in devfs_unlink().
