0d9deed52c mdoc: drop redundant .Pp and .LP calls 
They have no effect when coming in pairs, or before .Bl/.Bd

04e532d50b Allow mknod(8) to be only invoked with a pathname as an argument. 
In 99% of the cases people just want to recreate device nodes they
removed from /dev. There is no reason to pass the additional "c 0 0"
anymore.

Also slightly improve the manpage. Remove references to non-existent
device names and platforms.

76b363a605 Refer people looking to figure out what major to use for a device to 
MAKEDEV and sys/conf/majors, not sys/conf/device.<arch>, which has
never existed in the history of FreeBSD (well, at least it isn't in
the repository).

ef8f7ac935 Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality 
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.

in MAKEDEV(8) -- removing the need of having /usr mounted.
