I've removed all MIPS private allocations of misc minor devices. I'm not
happy with this change but without this there's no change to ever build
a driver for the affected systems from a stock kernel.org tree. This
change means the minor device numbers of the three affected device
drivers will change - something that will be very easy to deal with by
users and distributions.
