I don't think you took into consideration my remarks regarding the fact
that you would break userspace. If you enable the master, you no longer
have the same device numbering in userspace. I know people should not
care about these numbers, but in practice they do.

If I'm wrong, please be a little more verbose about why :)

Thanks,
Miquèl
