Re: Kernel crash on device_map DEVICE_NULL

There is no meaningful sense in which ext2fs.static can "call device_map on
a null pointer".  device_map is an RPC.  The only way a user task "calls"
the kernel function is by sending an RPC.  The RPC should never have gotten
there without a valid receiver port, so I don't see how it's possible.
