Hi Richard,
the previous version of my patch did contain a bug, caused by incorrect parameter order when calling __devfs_unregister_major. The symptom was, that major numbers registered with devfs_register_*dev but not allocated with devfs_alloc_major were not freed by calling devfs_unregister_*dev. This is now fixed. Sorry, the patch is attached (due to Notes messing up with whitespace). (See attached file: linux-2.4.17-devfs_fixup.diff)
Richard, I would appreciate it if you could finally look into this.
mit freundlichem Gruß / with kind regards Carsten Otte
