+/*
+
+This code provides support for manipulating linux device numbers. It should be replaced by normal syscall functions once http://code.google.com/p/go/issues/detail?id=8106 is solved.
+
+You can read what they are here:

+ - http://www.makelinux.net/ldd3/chp-3-sect-2
+ - http://www.linux-tutorial.info/modules.php?name=MContent&pageid=94
+
+Note! These are NOT the same as the MAJOR(dev_t device);, MINOR(dev_t device); and MKDEV(int major, int minor); functions as defined in <linux/kdev_t.h> as the representation of device numbers used by go is different than the one used internally to the kernel! - https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/include/linux/kdev_t.h#L9
