[PATCH] capi: register_chrdev() fix
If the user specified `major=0' (odd thing to do), capi.c will use dynamic allocation. We need to pick up that major for subsequent unregister_chrdev(). Acked-by: Karsten Keil <kkeil@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
