Thanks for the info...Philip, you are correct, but for the wrong reason. Al,
you hit it right on the head...
It is intentional behavior, but the reason is that
for name_to_dev_t() to work, CONFIG_SYSFS must be enabled...so there's
my connection to the CONFIG_* option that I suspected...
Thanks again...
I see, I wonder when that got added. Does there happen to be a way to
turn that off, but keep sysfs? Since I use an initramfs ( ubuntu )
there is no need for the kernel to contain such code. I wonder what
other bits of code could be removed when you use an initramfs?
