That's mainly old debugging cruft left behind. I think almost all of
that (expect the stuff that you really need) should use the XFSDEB
macros so it can be turned off instead. When I do the restructuring
of xfs I'll probably fix it.
And having the user read of the number and create the device by hand
is kind of sub-optimal as well. I don't know any way of doing it
automatically except actually creating the device nodes when loading
the module which seems ugly.
