Module Name:    src

Added Files:
        src/lib/libc/gen: getdevmajor.3 getdevmajor.c

Log Message:
Add a function called getdevmajor().

It tells you the major device number for whatever character or block
device you ask it.  This is sort of the inverse of devname(3) but not
quite, since it's backed by the kernel (sysctl's kern.drivers
information) and not a database cobbled together from the contents of
the filesystem.
