It is subtle and fragile and just means it'll eventually break again because it's near impossible to properly maintain. The alternative is to always check if the file exists in the params.c code before creating it. We can do that too, but it's somewhat dumb because sysfs is already doing that. -Andi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
