What we really need is devfs. Device cloning itself is really easy, but to do it right we want a direct file descriptor device interface so the device can be assigned to the (private) file pointer instead of to the (shared) vnode. devfs is needed because when we bypass the vnode the access and modified times will no longer get updated for devices in a normal UFS based /dev filesystem.
