[PATCH v2 0/2] char: misc: improve test and dynamic allocation

Posted by Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo 11 months, 1 week ago

This includes a change that prevents dynamic allocation from using a minor
number that belongs to the historically static reserved range, which is
still used by some drivers.

It also improves the test, including a lot of corner cases, specially ones
that would fail before past fixes.
