I'd really like to know that someone actually audited nullfs to see it
can be safely managed within a jail. devfs is probably even more
critical - hopefully it isn't possible to make simple administrative
mistake that will allow to get access to, eg. /dev/kmem from within a
jail or something similar. Changes like this one, which can have serious
security implications, should be really properly reviewed.
