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
