From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> This change creates a devices/virtual/CLASS_NAME tree for struct devices that belong to a class, yet do not have a "real" struct device for a parent. It automatically creates the directories on the fly as needed.
Why do you need multiple virtual devices? All parentless class devices could grow from a single virtual device. -- Dmitry - 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/
