makedevs: fix cases where (start != 0)
The makedevs script did not always generate the requested set of device names / minor number series. * If start != 0, then requesting (count) devices would generate only (count - start) * If start != 0 && increment != 1, then requesting minors starting with (minor) would generate minors starting with (minor + (start * (increment - 1))) This patch fixes the code and updates the usage text with extra examples.
