[lm-sensors] Re: [PATCH 2.6.12-rc4-mm2] drivers: (dynamic sysfs

[yani.ioannou@gmail.com (Yani Ioannou)]

Here is the previously mentioned perl script. Its quite simplistic,
and accepts the filename of a source file to update as a parameter, or
uses stdin/stdout if no parameters are given. To update a whole tree
using the below just use something like:

find linux-2.6.12-rc4 -type f -exec ./updatedyncallbackdevattr.pl {} \;

This script should catch every device_attribute callback, including
multiline function signatures and embedded in macros. If it fails to
catch something please let me know.

Thanks,
Yani
