It seems that is the root of the problem.
When you refer to /dev you could mean one of two things:
1. /dev on root filesystem. This is the file provided by the
base-files package, and the file to be relabeled.
2. /dev on external filesystem, which should not be relabeled
if the external file system is devfs. (I guess you could, in theory
have /dev on another filesystem, but I am not sure why you would
want to bother...).
Just another solution, would it perhaps be better to make both device_t,
but modify devfs to allow a readonly option?
