New Revision: 324853
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/324853

Log:
  Remove the support for mknod(S_IFMT), which created dummy vnodes with
  VBAD type.
  
  FFS ffs_write() VOP catches such vnodes and panics, other VOPs do not
  check for the type and their behaviour is really undefined.  The
  comment claims that this support was done for 'badsect' to flag bad
  sectors, we do not have such facility in kernel anyway.
