Not a big deal, but I found it a bit confusing that this file was
modified then deleted in patch 2. Would it work having patch 1 stop
building the standalone test/remove it and .gitignore entry, patch 2
updating progs/dev_cgroup.c to allow /dev/zero, /dev/urandom access,
patch 3 add cgroup_dev.c test support, and patch 4 add the device type
subtest? Or are there issues with doing things that way? Thanks!
