Perhaps using a config option wasn't the right way to do this - a kernel boot parameter might be better. In fact, one could envisage a kernel boot parameter "sysfs_version=N" which will allow distro people to select the sysfs-of-the-day which works with their userspace. Because it does appear that we need _something_ which will get us away from this ongoing problem of needing to keep the kernel and userspace synchronised across sysfs changes. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
