dm_parse_device_entry() simply copies the minor number into dmi.dev, but the dev_t format splits the minor number between the lowest 8 bytes and highest 12 bytes. If the minor number is larger than 255, part of it will end up getting treated as the major number Fix this by checking that the minor number is valid and then encoding it as a dev_t.
