  Log:
  MFC devfs_rule.c:1.21 from HEAD to RELENG_6:
  
    When returning EIO from DEVFSIO_RADD ioctl, drop the exclusive rule
    lock.  Otherwise the system comes to a rather sudden and grinding
    halt.
  
  As the underlying devfs locking changes that lead to this bug have not
  been merged to RELENG_5, this fix to those locking changes does not
  need to be merged.
