I got your point .
I was using
struct inode *inode = file->f_dentry->d_inode;
min = iminor(inode);
to see which node has been opened,
I wanted to make sure myself the correct/best way of
getting this information.

If yes then have a look at scull/main.c file in scull folder at below

Basically you need to set private_data of filp at open time with device
information and get the private_data from filp in ioctl.
If you don't understand then just have a look at the file I mentioned.
