    Hi,

    inspired by the recent posting of the gbde tutorial I went out and
    set up an encrypted partition using geom_bde on my laptop. When
    trying to umount this partition the umount fails with:

        # umount /crypto
        umount: unmount of /crypto failed: Resource temporarily unavailable

    and the following message gets logged:

        fsync: giving up on dirty: 0xc456ec8c: tag devfs, type VCHR,
        usecount 5140, writecount 0, refcount 93, flags (VV_OBJBUF),
        lock type devfs: EXCL (count 1) by thread 0xc4240130
                dev ad0s3a.bde

    This is with a fairly recent kernel, cvsupped a few hours ago:

        # uname -a
        FreeBSD tybalt 5.1-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #26: Mon Sep 29
        22:18:26 CEST 2003 root@tybalt:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/TYBALT
        i386

    The kernel config is a standard GENERIC with some device drivers
    removed. geom_bde was loaded as a module. Please let me know if I
    can provide further information.

    Regards
            -Thorsten
