Some the misc device minor numbers definitions spread in different local c files, specially some are duplicate number with different name, some are same name with conflict numbers, some prefer dynamic minors.
This patchset try to address all of them.
To be honest, I didn't try build on arm or sparc arch which some drivers depend on as I have little experience on cross-compile. But I still checked the patch carefully to ensure it builds in theory. Appreciate if anyone willing to test build on those arch.
