[PATCH] devfs v185 available

[Richard Gooch]

  Hi, all. Version 185 of my devfs patch is now available from:
http://www.atnf.csiro.au/~rgooch/linux/kernel-patches.html
The devfs FAQ is also available here.

Patch directly available from:
ftp://ftp.??.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rgooch/v2.4/devfs-patch-current.gz

AND:
ftp://ftp.atnf.csiro.au/pub/people/rgooch/linux/kernel-patches/v2.4/devfs-patch-current.gz

This is against 2.4.8-pre6. Highlights of this release:

- Made <block_semaphore> and <char_semaphore> in fs/devfs/util.c
  private

- Fixed inode table races by removing it and using inode->u.generic_ip
  instead

- Moved <devfs_read_inode> into <get_vfs_inode>

- Moved <devfs_write_inode> into <devfs_notify_change>

				Regards,

					Richard....
