NAME
        RemDevice -- remove a device from the system

   SYNOPSIS
        RemDevice(device)
                  A1

        void RemDevice(struct device *);

   FUNCTION
        This function calls the device's EXPUNGE vector, which requests
        that a device delete itself.  The device may refuse to do this if
        it is busy or currently open. This is not typically called by user
        code.

        There are certain, limited circumstances where it may be
        appropriate to attempt to specifically flush a certain device.
        Example:

         /* Attempts to flush the named device out of memory. */
         #include <exec/types.h>
         #include <exec/execbase.h>

         void FlushDevice(name)
         strptr name;
         {
         struct device *result;

            Forbid();
            if(result=(struct device *)findname(&sysbase->devicelist,name))
                RemDevice(result);
            Permit();
         }

   INPUTS
        device - pointer to a device node
