    While explaining some make_dev related stuff to Victor I realized that
    I made a mistake in my commit.... I had forgotten why I had the ops check
    in there in the first place.

    The reason is that the kernel can create shadow devices which
    are supposed to be invisible to userland.  This is why the ops pointer
    is compared in hashdev().

    So we cannot just allow any ops vector mismatch to be overridden.
    I have made a followup commit which adds a flag that hashdev() can
    check for and I added a comment to the code describing the reason.
