Most likely one of your device nodes turned into a regular file.
Considering what I've seen over the years the most likely culprit is
/dev/null.
Probably the easiest way to find it is with:
find /dev/ -type f -a ! -name MAKEDEV
Once you've find it you can just delete it and recreate it with
cd /dev; sh ./MAKEDEV <devname>
