This patch was dropped because Tony asked
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: VT binding: Add sysfs support
From: "Antonino A. Daplas" <adaplas@xxxxxxxxx>
Add sysfs attributes for binding and unbinding VT console drivers. The
attributes are located in /sys/class/tty/console and are namely:
A. backend - list registered drivers in the following format:
"I C: Description"
Where: I = ID number of the driver
C = status of the driver which can be:
S = system driver
B = bound modular driver
U = unbound modular driver
Description - text description of the driver
B. bind - binds a driver to the console layer
echo <ID> > /sys/class/tty/console/bind
C. unbind - unbinds a driver from the console layer
echo <ID> > /sys/class/tty/console/unbind
The tty layer does nothing to these attributes except create them and punt all
requests to the VT layer.
