You have to read /usr/src/UPDATING:
20040802:
making /dev/(null|zero) into a module proved to be too
unpopular,
so this bit has been revoked from the previous (20040801) entry.
20040801:
The /dev/mem, /dev/io /dev/(null/zero) devices are now modules,
so you may wish to add them to your kernel config file. See
GENERIC for examples.
