change to fs/proc/inode.c breaks ALSA drivers

[Alex Davis <alex14641@yahoo.com>]

Hello

Somewhere between 2.4.15pre6 and 2.4.15 final,
fs/proc/inode.c was modified. The change causes all
the devices files that ALSA creates in
/proc/asound/dev to have a major and minor number of
zero. I'm sending a patch to revert the file back to
what it was in 2.4.15pre5.
