sys/compat/linux/linux_util.c
206 ↗	(On Diff #74301)	Do we need to? I've looked at vn_isdisk(), and it doesn't seem to use the vnode lock.

sys/compat/linux/linux_util.c
206 ↗	(On Diff #74301)	It uses dev_mtx, same as you did, which is global and already contended mutex. Ok, it probably would be better to do the global sweep for vn_isdisk(), finishing mjg half-done change.
