I tried to send this once before, but it got bounced because I'm in the
"auto-*whitelist*", and apparently that's now assigned *positive* 5.5
points out of 5 in the SpamAssassin rules.  Trying to resend, hope this
works...

Well, I'm not sure what the original paper had in it.  I assume it's
probably similar to the device-model-ols.sxi file (since the file name
seems to be similar), however that's just a slideshow, not really a full
paper.

There are also some issues with the correctness of the information in
the 2002 slideshow.  He's talking a lot about driverfs, which is gone
now, and there's a slide or two that talks about /sbin/hotplug, which is
also gone now.  Perhaps the 2005 PDF on sysfs is best, since it's at
least correct on most of the things that have been changed since 2002.

Or perhaps we should just remove it.  I wish I'd read the driver-model
paper before, so I knew what kind of information was in it, and whether
it was worth keeping (i.e. replacing it with something else).
