[PATCH 14/22] [PATCH] [Cardman 40x0] Fix udev device creation

From: Chris Wright
Date: Wed May 17 2006 - 18:14:57 EST


-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------

This patch corrects the order of the calls to register_chrdev() and
pcmcia_register_driver(). Now udev correctly creates userspace device
files /dev/cmmN and /dev/cmxN respectively.

Based on an earlier patch by Jan Niehusmann <jan@xxxxxxxxxx>.
