A quick question for the real Gurus:

One cannot OpenDevice() from a task, if the device might have to be loaded
from disk; fair enough.  However, what about CloseDevice()?  Since the RKM
docs don't mention a restriction, and since I can't imagine CloseDevice()
ever doing any disk activity, I *think* this should be OK.  But I'd like
to make *sure* before I do it and start to get random gurus...  Thanks.
