devfs_ops_f is a local static fileops object for devfs. I don't see how 
is this similar to our situation. devfs doesn't overload any other file 
system, they are a file system on their own.

In epoll case, fileops object as a whole should be exposed and used for 
fp->f_ops, except fo_close which is overloaded.

So would you think struct fileops* kqueue_fileops(); be ok then?
