    DEVFS - Add serial number links for all CAM and NATA attachments.
    
    All CAM-probed drives and NATA probed drives which have a serial number
    will now show up in DEVFS under /dev/serno, in addition to showing up
    as da/cd/ad*.  This will ultimately tie into /etc/devtab.
Very good!  However, could we use something more elaborate than "serno". 
 When I first read it out of context, I had to ponder several seconds 
to understand what it is.  I suggest using "disks/by-serial/".

cheers
