I wonder if there is someone out there with a good understanding of the
lifecycle of a vnode, who can go over devfs with me.
I am sure I'm being really stupid regarding vnode allocation is some
places but I'm not quite sure what the RIGHT thingto be doing is..

it's a simple module really, but I need a guide in this part..

I added SYMLINK support today, which seems to work, except that
occasionally I get a panic("cleaned vnode isn't");
Now I can see why this might happen, but U can't see what I need to do to
fix it..
