Ok here's the deal. I started a new 2.6+ device list. This list will start to
have more 2.6+ specific entries. You new major/minors are:

231 char        InfiniBand MAD
        0 = /dev/infiniband/umad0
        1 = /dev/infiniband/umad1
         ...

So far you have the whole major.

The updated list is available at lanana.org.

Thanks,
Torben
