Re: [PATCH] Driver Core patches for 2.6.10-rc1

[Greg KH <greg@kroah.com>]

ChangeSet 1.2448, 2004/11/01 13:05:24-08:00, dtor_core@ameritech.net

[PATCH] Driver core: export device_attach

Driver core: make device_attach() global and export it and
             driver_attach() so subsystems can have finer
             control over binding process.
