seems ok but as you make the machdep.vmt.clock_sync.period node, what
happens if more than one vmt device attaches?  I don't know if that can
happen of course..  for ubt(4) I made a node for each instance of the
driver, using device_xname()

also, the description should be wrapped in SYSCTL_DESCR() I think, as I
think it is possible to exclude them from a kernel that way.
