pktcdvd major contradicts <linux/Documentation/devices.txt>

good evening,

(1)
# grep -B 1 pktcdvd /usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt 
 97 block       Packet writing for CD/DVD devices
                  0 = /dev/pktcdvd0     First packet-writing module
                  1 = /dev/pktcdvd1     Second packet-writing module

but:

(2)
# modprobe pktcdvd
# grep pktcdvd /proc/devices 
254 pktcdvd


so, in contrast to the documentation, pktcdvd gets a dynamic major.

kind regards,
h.rosmanith
