	Noone has answered my question as to why creating a dkn variable
	is the correct solution and using the kernel variable dk_ndrive (iostat
	uses to determine the number of drives in the system) is the
	wrong solution.

	It seems to me that dkn was a loose end hanging around in the x86
	port.

	So, can someone answer me as to why dk_ndrive is the WRONG variable
	to use in ccd.c? It would appear to be how the kernel keeps track
	of the number of "disks" there are in the system.

	See <sys/dkstat.h> for details.
