Here is a quick hack to allow subsystems to provide a mode for their
devices. It uses the callback that can provide custom non-default device
names. Ingo, maybe you can give it a try?
To see how it works, it currently includes access to: null, zero, full,
random, urandom, tty, ptmx. Also the USB /dev nodes have the same
permissions as the USB /proc nodes always had. That's basically what
udev does today for non-root users.

Oh, we can add them back if we need them. They have been in earlier
versions of devtmpfs, but people didn't like them, so we removed
them. :)
Thanks,
Kay
