[PATCH 5/5] driver core: Implement shadow directory support for device classes.

Eric W. Biederman ebiederm at xmission.com
Fri Apr 6 10:14:52 PDT 2007


This patch enables shadowing on every class directory if struct class
has shadow_ops.

In addition device_del and device_rename were modified to use
sysfs_delete_link and sysfs_rename_link respectively to ensure when
these operations happen in the presence of shadow directories the
work properly.
