I'll leave most of the questions to Dan, but several questions are related to the implementation detail of vanity naming...

For example, a ce0 link, its major number would be "ce" and its minor would be 0, so that when an application opens "ce0", or some driver calls mac_open("ce0"), the kernel knows to hold the corresponding ce0 device, as the result, "ce0" mac can be registered. But I am wondering whether it is correct to list all these implementation details in the document. Thanks - Cathy
