Is this the correct instructions?  Aren't you looking for a major/minor
number instead in your sysfs file?

Will that print a dev_t in a format that userspace can make sense of it?
Should you split it up with MAJOR:MINOR instead?

Can I DoS the syslog with this?  :)

Same here, dev_dbg() perhaps?

Other than these minor things, looks good to me.

Your tty changes are fine, if I can get an ack from the led maintainers
about a working patch 3, I'll be glad to take all 3 in my tree.
