misc: Fix allocation 'borrowed' by vhost_net
10, 233 is allocated officially to /dev/kmview which is shipping in Ubuntu and Debian distributions. vhost_net seem to have borrowed it without making a proper request and this causes regressions in the other distributions. vhost_net can use a dynamic minor so use that instead. Also update the file with a comment to try and avoid future misunderstandings. cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <device@lanana.org> [ We should have caught this before 2.6.34 got released. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
