Subject: [PATCH] staging: unisys: handle major number properly
Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2015 20:31:24 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1426604484-7770-1-git-send-email-sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com> (raw)

fixed the handling of dev_t and the major number.
now the major and minor number is passed to the init function.
similarly in the cleanup function dev_t is passed to unregister it.
