Can you try this:
diff --git a/fs/char_dev.c b/fs/char_dev.c
index 24b142569ca9..74a2d433273e 100644
--- a/fs/char_dev.c
+++ b/fs/char_dev.c
@@ -96,6 +96,8 @@ __register_chrdev_region(unsigned int major,
unsigned int baseminor,
goto out;
}
major = i;
+ pr_info("CHARDEV: allocate major %d for \"%s\"\n",
+ i, name);
}
cd->major = major;
Then dmesg |grep CHARDEV should tell what we need to know.
