30// The DEVFS File System contains the inodes and dentries associated to the chdev
31// descriptors available in the architecture.
32//
33// It is structured as a three levels tree structure :
34// - The "dev" directory inode is stored in cluster_IO. It is the root of the DEVFS
35//   file system. The parent inode is the "/" VFS root.
36// - There is one "internal_cxy" directory inode per cluster, that is the parent of
37//   the local children inodes associated to the local, internal chdev descriptors.
38//   The parent dentry is stored in cluster_IO.
39// - The I/O cluster contains one "external" directory inode, that is the parent of
40//   the remote children inodes associated to the remote external chdev descriptors.
41//   The parent dentry is stored in cluster_IO.
42//
43// The DEVFS extensions to the generic VFS are the following:
44// 1) The vfs_ctx_t "extend" field is pointing on the devfs_ctx_t structure.
45// 2) The vfs_inode_t "extend" field is pointing on the chdev descriptor.
