I'm pretty sure the current code will crash with some inputs, but I don't know what the original author intended this code to do, so I don't know how to fix it.

We must fix it instead of leaving FIXME.
I see there are multiple bugs (in addition to your patch#1):
the error check is wrong, it should be compared with -ENOENT if (err < 0 && err != ENOENT)
This leaves cdev1 or cdev2 NULL as non-error.
The intention of the code should be (as far as I understand):
- if only one of cdev1 and cdev2 is defined, take it as cdev
- if cdev1 and cdev2 are defined and have the same string, keep cdev1 and free cdev2
- in the rest cases, free both cdev1 and cdev2 without changing cdev
Regarding that last case, just leaving cdev unchanged is not a good idea. cdev will always be NULL if we don't set it here, and when we call open_ctl(), it must be non-NULL.
Right. I *guess* if cdev1 != cdev2, it should bail out as an error.
Ok, I'll make a patch that will implement the described behaviour.
Thanks!
