NAME
     device_enable, device_disable, device_is_enabled — manipulate device enabled flag


SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/param.h>
     #include <sys/bus.h>

     void
     device_enable(device_t dev);

     void
     device_disable(device_t dev);

     int
     device_is_enabled(device_t dev);


DESCRIPTION
     Each device has an enabled flag associated with it.  A device is enabled by default when it is created but
     may be disabled (for instance to prevent a destructive or time consuming probe attempt).  To disable a
     device, call device_disable(), to re-enable it, call device_enable() and to test to see if a device is
     enabled, call device_is_enabled().
