See http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mochel/device/ for some
documentation on the changes, and some patches that have not been
applied to the main kernel yet.

So far the basic infrastructure is there, and now the various bus
subsystems are going to be starting to convert over to using the code.
See the converting-drivers.txt file in that directory for some
information on what is going to happen (although that document is still
under construction, probably until all of the code is converted :)

It's going to be a fun ride :)
