DESCRIPTION
       The ldi_get_eventcookie() function queries the device tree for a cookie
       matching the given event name and returns a reference to	 that  cookie.
       The  search is performed by calling up the device tree hierarchy of the
       device  represented by the layered driver handle until  the request  is
       satisfied  by  a	 bus nexus driver,  or the top of the dev_info tree is
       reached.

       The cookie returned by this function can be used to register a callback
       handler with ldi_add_event_handler(9F).

RETURN VALUES
       DDI_SUCCESS	       Cookie handle is returned.

       DDI_FAILURE	       Request was not serviceable by any nexus driver
			       in the target device's  ancestral  device  tree
			       hierarchy.

CONTEXT
       This function may be called from user or kernel contexts.
