 * Name: register_driver
 *
 * Description:
 *   Register a character driver inode the pseudo file system.
 *
 * Input parameters:
 *   path - The path to the inode to create
 *   fops - The file operations structure
 *   mode - inmode priviledges (not used)
 *   priv - Private, user data that will be associated with the inode.
 *
 * Returned Value:
 *   Zero on success (with the inode point in 'inode'); A negated errno
 *   value is returned on a failure (all error values returned by
 *   inode_reserve):
 *
 *   EINVAL - 'path' is invalid for this operation
 *   EEXIST - An inode already exists at 'path'
 *   ENOMEM - Failed to allocate in-memory resources for the operation
 *
