to be sorted, due to binary searching in g_part_alias_name(). It turned
out that g_part_alias_name() did a linear search, so the list didn't
strictly need to be sorted. But, there was talk of potentially switching
to a binary search later, so Allan went with the sorted version.

Hi,

no, my note was relate to the following possible problem:
you have some stable/10 and some geom_part_panasas module installed from
the ports in the /boot/modules. When you rebuild the kernel after
merging r292788 your module will use old values of g_part_alias and thus
it will get not the same aliases. You will need rebuild your module to
fix this.
