[illumos-Developer] webrev: 1075 smbsrv missing /etc/devlink.tabentry

[Garrett D'Amore]

Note that /etc/devlink.tab is a legacy mechanism.  I'd far rather see this handled as part of the devfsadm plugin misc_link.c.  You can find that in usr/src/cmd/devfsadm/misc_link.c  It should be self explanatory... just one more entry to each of two tables in that file.  (One for create, the other for remove.)

Furthermore once you have the devlink established, you can use /dev/smb* instead of the full /devices path.
