Hot days of 4.0 preparation are behind. May be some
guru will find the solution for the subject?

Two problems are here

a) devices without driver attached to 'unknown' driver, thus
   no orphan devices -- no reason to call device_probe method
   from kldloaded driver.

b) if disable 'unknown' driver as was recommended earlier,
   device still consume resources, and this resources are not
   presented to kldloaded driver -- resource leak.


Thanks
