This API will allow a userland application to tell on which media a path is located. A practical use case is to determine whether it is worth to use readahead (worth for spinning disk) or not (solid). This version likely isn't final. Instead of using strcmp() in geom_disk, i'd prefer to add a mediaword to struct disk and make disk drivers fill it there.
