From: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>

Follow-on patch to the previous driver model patch for the MTD
framework.  This one makes various MTD drivers connect to the
driver model tree, so /sys/devices/virtual/mtd/* nodes are no
longer present ... mostly drivers used on boards I have handy.

Based on a patch from Kay Sievers.

Could this be done for all NANDs in nand_base.c instead?

By adding the device as a parameter to nand_scan(),
and presumably nand_scan_ident() ... which is a more
invasive API change, and would require a "flag day"
to convert all drivers.

My default assumption for API changes is to avoid
flag days.  They can be done, yes, but I don't see
a compelling reason to choose one here.

Why would it be reasonable?

Thanks,

OK. MTD long needs sysfs, and I'm very happy with this
patches, even though they are not 100% complete. Good
start anyway.

Thanks.  I'll expect someone to handle getting these
merged through the MTD tree, then.

And I'll be rather surprised if no more attributes
appear by the time this gets to mainline!  :)

David Woodhouse maintains the MTD tree. He saw your patches,
not sure when he takes them.

If he merges them during this merge window, then this might
not be the case :-)
