Is this kind of fuzzy matching used in other dummy devs? It looks little bit
scary. You
can at least replace

strstr(dev_name(dev), "dummy_dev"))

with

strstr(dev_name(dev), ".dummy_dev."))

Anyway, currently it should not break anything, am I right?

I suppose these callbacks are optional, so you can omit them.
