If you look at:
https://git.busybox.net/busybox/tree/examples/mdev_fat.conf

you see that mdev.conf is for knowing owner:group and chmod of the
device file to create, example:

ttyS[0-9]*      root:uucp 660


You can also run a program when creating a device

sd[a-z].*       root:disk 660 */lib/mdev/usbdisk_link


but thoose programs are not provided by the busybox git repo.

I'll see if I can find some informations re. you other points.
