I also get the same warning when I mount /tmp on an MFS filesystem. I
don't get the warning when I pass the "nodev" option to mount.

/etc/fstab:
/dev/da0s2b  /tmp  mfs  rw,-s131072  0  0
=> warning message

/etc/fstab:
/dev/da0s2b  /tmp  mfs  rw,nodev,-s131072  0  0
=> no warning message

Looking in sys/kern/kern_conf.c at the function udev2dev() gave me the
clue to use "nodev". Not that I understand what's happening or am able
to fix it.
