Arnd notes in the link: | To clarify: the only numbers that I think should be changed to dynamic | allocation are for drivers/staging/speakup. While this is a fairly old | subsystem, I would expect that it being staging means we can be a | little more progressive with the changes.
This releases misc device minor numbers 25-27 for dynamic usage.
