When cdev_add is called after device_add has been called there is no way for the userspace to know about the addition of a cdev as cdev_add itself doesn't trigger a uevent notification, or for the kernel to know about the change to devt. This results in two problems: - mknod is never called for the cdev and hence no cdev appears on devtmpfs. - sysfs links to the new cdev are not established.
The cdev needs to be added and devt assigned before device_add() is called in order for the relevant sysfs and devtmpfs entries to be created and the uevent to be properly populated.
