[PATCH] openfirmware: add sysfs nodes for open firmware devices
This adds sysfs nodes that the hotplug userspace can use to load the
appropriate modules.
In order for hotplug to work with macio devices, patches to
module-init-tools and hotplug must be applied. Those patches are
available at:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/jeffm/linux/macio-hotplug/
Changes: The previous versions were built on 2.6.12. 2.6.13-rcX introduced
a device_attribute parameter to the show functions. Since that
parameter was treated as the output buffer, memory corruption would
result, causing Oopsen very quickly.
