Subject: [PATCH 08/11] driver core: revert "device" link creation check
Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2007 15:09:30 -0700	[thread overview]

driver core: revert "device" link creation check

Commit 2ee97caf0a6602f749ddbfdb1449e383e1212707 introduced an extra
check on when to create the "device" symlink. Unfortunately, this
breaks input, so let's revert to the old behaviour.
