I looked into it, and there is no problem. If /dev is not a separate
file system, then the /dev directory on your root device is being used:

# mount --bind / /mnt/other
# ls -alhF /mnt/other/dev/
total 8.0K
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4.0K Mar  9 22:27 ./
drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4.0K May 29 15:50 ../
crw-------  1 root root 5, 1 Mar  9 22:27 console
crw-r--r--  1 root root 1, 3 Mar  9 22:27 null
crw-r--r--  1 root root 1, 5 Mar  9 22:27 zero
# umount /mnt/other
