At the moment I use

REGISTER ^dvb/card[0-9]+/[^/]+$ PERMISSIONS root.video 0660
REGISTER	^dvb/card([0-9]+)/([^/0-9]*)[0-9]+$	CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink /dev/$devname ost/\2\1
UNREGISTER	^dvb/card([0-9]+)/([^/0-9]*)[0-9]+$	CFUNCTION GLOBAL unlink ost/\2\1

for devfsd.

and 

alias char-major-250 dvb
alias /dev/ost/* dvb           # autoload module
options dvb init_chan=2 pids_off=0
below saa7146_core VES1893 VES1820 L64781 stv0299 dvb_tuner # renamed tuner.o to dvb_tuner.o
                                                            # possible conflicts with other 
							    # tv-cards
below dvb saa7146_v4l

in /etc/modules.conf.
