Specification in devices.txt about capi devices is out of date as the capifs layout for capi tty devices was never added to it. Recent udev versions can't produce working device nodes because of a typo in the device_create call for the capi control device. Due to this the wrong node name of the control device "capi" collides with the "capi" directory under which the now deprecated capifs was mounted and created the capi tty device nodes. This also changes the capi tty device names passed to udev to the capifs layout which isn't mentioned in the specs.
