Hello,
This patch was originally floating around linux-kernel a while ago
for 2.4.x, all I have done is update it to work with 2.5.x. It will
only create directories and device files for cpus present at boot, there
was a seperate version of a patch similar to this which implemented
devfs_per_cpu_{un,}register functions but the devfs code it was based is
very different than todays devfs in 2.5.x. This patch works well enough
for me to simply gain access to /dev/cpu/%d/{cpuid,msr}. Thanks.
Jordan
