I've just seen, that 2.1.90 is released, but maybe, my bug report
for 2.1.89 is still useful:
I created a character device, /dev/rds, Major 59, Minor 0, which is
used by a kernel module.
I didn't load that kernel module, but made a `cat /dev/rds` and
Linux 2.1.89 OOpsed with the following error:
>cat /dev/rds
