// *	name      - This is the name of the device as specified in the DDL file.
// *	directory - This is the cdevDirectoryTable object where the device was
// *                registered.
// *	cdevClass - This is the definition object for the class that the device
// *                belongs to.
// *	next      - This is the next device in the linked list of cdevDevice
// *                Definition objects.  This list is maintained as part of the
