Description
The current scheme where Devman registers devices in Devmap and user-connections go through DevFS → Devmap → Devman is ugly, complex and confusing.
Remaining functionality that Devmap has over Devman should be folded to Devman. This means:
- Devman might need to implement additional calls to support DevFS
- DevFS needs to be ported from Devmap to Devman
- Devman needs to support pseudo-devices (#296)
- Devman must be able to start without a file system (it only needs to support pseudo-devs at this stage)
- All Devmap-style drivers must be ported to DDF
