Yes. I've not tried that, but guessing it could be used as a
workaround for something like a zvol-backed image where the zvol is
created after the sysctl is set.
However, what is really needed is something like a blacklist that can
prevent specified devices from being seen by GEOM at all, since the
internal structure is only relevant to the guest VM.

Peter.
