It's obvious this is a serial number, that's what the documentation and file name says. Userspace should not have to parse sysfs files. And why is only one sysfs entry being changed in this file? Either they all should be, or none, no need to do this one-patch-per-entry, right? Note, I have rejected Qing's patches like this for other subsystems already because they are not complete, this is something they are well aware of by now... thanks, greg k-h
