But you shouldn't need this.  The only reason for the old VNDEVICE was because
the release process couldn't automatically find an unused device to use, so it
had to have help if vn0 is used.  The current method always finds an unused
device to use, so the old VNDEVICE-style hack is no longer needed.  There's no
point to setting an explicit device to use.
