Hi Andrew,
this patch adds a 'cmos' attribute to the floppy driver. This lets you
figure out which drive types are actually supported by this drive.
When using udev you currently have to either not create any device node
beside /dev/fdX (and make quite some users unhappy) or create every
single possible device nodes (and defeat the purpose of udev to create
device nodes for existing devices only).
Please apply.
Cheers,
Hannes

Subject: Add 'cmos' attribute to floppy driver
Currently only a device 'fdX' shows up in sysfs; the other possible
device for this drive (like fd0h1440 etc) must be guessed from there.
This patch corrects the floppy driver to create a platform device for
each floppy found; each platform device also has an attribute 'cmos'
which represents the cmos type for this drive. From this attribute the
other possible device types can be computed.
