char: misc: Add a case to test registering miscdevice again without reinitialization

For miscdevice who wants dynamic minor, add a cast to test if it can be
successfully registered again without reinitialization:

1) Provide Both miscdevice @dev_A and @dev_B want to request dynamic
   minor by initializing their minor to MISC_DYNAMIC_MINOR.

2) Register then de-register @dev_A.

3) Register @dev_B.

4) Register @dev_A again without reinitialization.

5) Check if @dev_A can be successfully registered.
