URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/280586

Log:
  MFC r280345:
  Fix for out of order device destruction notifications when using the
  delist_dev() function. In addition to this change:
  - add a proper description of this function
  - add a proper witness assert inside this function
  - switch a nearby line to use the "cdp" pointer instead of cdev2priv()
