Hello!
I've made a patch for devfs support in USB scanners (against 2.4.5-ac9).
It can be found here:
http://www.red-bean.com/~proski/linux/scanner-devfs.diff
The patch is quite straightforward. The necessary changes have been taken
from usb-skeleton.c and verified against printer.c.
The scanner names will be /dev/usb/scanner0 ... /dev/usb/scanner15 in full
accordance will Documentation/devices.txt.
For some reason private structures of the driver are kept in scanner.h,
but it's only included by scanner.c, so please don't worry about changes
in the headers. Ideally, most (all?) stuff from scanner.h should be moved
into scanner.c, but I don't want to mix two patches.
The patch has been tested with ScanPrisa 640U.
The patch is below my signature as well as at
