No longer create character devices, now that there is no difference.
Make the devices as character devices, not block devices.
Add function definition for readpol command.
Rewrite make_devices with a view to incremental making. In the
process, effectively kill off plex-bound subdisk device numbers.
the device numbers are now minor number only, so that we can still

the wrong module can cause confusion, including loading both versions
(which conflict with each other) and incorrect ioctls, which cause
unintelligible error messages.
Extend 'start' command: if used without any parameters, vinum scans
all disks known to devstat for vinum drives and reads their
