31 * Register a tape device and return a pointer to the tape class device
32 * created by the call.
35 * The pointer to the struct device of the physical (base) device.
37 * The intended major/minor number. The major number may be 0 to
38 * get a dynamic major number.
40 * The pointer to the drivers file operations for the tape device.
42 * Pointer to the logical device name (will also be used as kobject name
43 * of the cdev). This can also be called the name of the tape class
46 * Points to the name of the tape mode. This creates a link with that
47 * name from the physical device to the logical device (class).
