[PATCH] Initialise devfs_name in various block drivers
From: Andrey Borzenkov <arvidjaar@mail.ru> Various block drivers are currently devfs-unaware. Andrey's patch attempts to give them reasonable representations in devfs. "The attached patch suggests some possible names for non-floppy devices based on reading driver source. I have to ask if these make sense. At least for cciss Mandrake devfsd patch expects different names but it seems to be mistake (it assumes single controller always) "For floppy it is not as simple. Floppy cannot use genhd and must create names manually; but I do not know what names are appropriate or expected. "For acsi the target/lun name may have problem of creating compat names (if any) by devfsd. "Please note that none of them created any devfs name under 2.4 as well. So it is not a regression ..."
