Ameya Palande said the following on 02/01/2010 08:18 PM:
Since there is only 1 device there is no need of driver_minor global variable.
i am a little skeptical about this change - mainly coz, it might be a good idea for a userspace option
to be able to define what the minor id could be -> maybe an example could be /dev/mem which has a minor
id of 1, not 0. having a module_param might be better as such.. just my 2 cents..
