Generally speaking making use of any white-listing diminishes the 
capability to find items of a possibly malicious nature. However 
since the amount of logging due to false positives for most doesn't 
outweigh the risk, if you can trace back the origin slash cause to 
a known good process or package then you could white-list these 
items. Your rkhunter.conf will contain examples for common /dev 
culprits like /dev/intramfs, /dev/static, /dev/udev and /dev/java.
