I checked that. My additional zcrypt devices (you can easily create one
with just echo "blubber" >/sys/class/zcrypt/create) and then have a look
to the new device entry in sysfs at /sys/devices/virtual/zcrypt/blubber).
Maybe you need to alloc device numbers for this - I am not sure if it is
sufficient to device_register() without a device number. However, have
a look into zcrpyt_api.c zcdn_init() and zcdn_create().
With a new class, you can also remove the root device needed as an
anchor for the old and for the bus code.
