USB disk keys in the master branch will now attach starting
at da8 instead of da0. This is to reduce interference between
USB disk keys and AHCI/SILI probes which also attach to da*.
The relatively few people booting from USB disk keys will need
to adjust the /etc/fstab on the disk key.
The kernel should still be able to automount the root but you can
avoid unnecessary root mount scanning by supplying the exact mount
string via /boot/loader.conf, e.g. vfs.root.mountfrom="ufs:da8s1a".
