Re: [PATCH] Driver Core patches for 2.6.10-rc1

[Greg KH <greg@kroah.com>]

ChangeSet 1.2452, 2004/11/01 13:06:49-08:00, kay.sievers@vrfy.org

[PATCH] take me home, hotplug_path[]

Move hotplug_path[] out of kmod.[ch] to kobject_uevent.[ch] where
it belongs now. At some time in the future we should fix the remaining bad
hotplug calls (no SEQNUM, no netlink uevent):

  ./drivers/input/input.c (no DEVPATH on some hotplug events!)
  ./drivers/pnp/pnpbios/core.c
  ./drivers/s390/crypto/z90main.c
