This adds /sys/class/mem which enables all misc char devices to show up
properly in udev.
Note, the misc_init() call has been moved to a subsys_initcall as it
seems there are a lot of platform specific misc devices that are calling
misc_register before misc_init() is called.
Has been posted to lkml a few times in the past and tested by a wide
range of people.

Oops, that should say, "/sys/class/misc". Sorry for the typo.

So how are misc devices a device class now? This is just a random coolection
of drivers that traditionally didn't have their own major. Killing misc
devices sounds like abetter plan than codifying this in sysfs..
