Re: MPC52xx: sysfs failure on adding new device driver

Sylvain:
btw, if not yet integrated you should send your patch to Wolfang, he's 
the one maintaining that tree.
Wolfgang:
I've seen the patch, but did not decide yet what to do with it.  Many
drivers  don't  support  devfs  anyway, and in my opinion devfs makes
little sense in embedded systems anyway. Not to mention that it  will
officially  be removed from the kernel tree in less than 4 weeks from
now (see Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt).
This is nonsense.  You know, when I made this patch I said 
to myself, "Self, you're wasting your time, these guys won't take patches 
from somebody they don't know"  But I thought it was enough of a 
no-brainer that it might go through.

Seems I was wrong.
