Reading 'man 2 mknod' I suppose that we should pass non-zero dev for
block devices as well. Hoever the test seems to work fine with zero dev
for both cases.

Btw makedev(1, 3) seems to be the /dev/null char device and it should
work for block devices since block makedev(1, 3) would be /dev/ram3, so
what about:
