+parport_register_drv - register a device driver with parport
+--------------------
+
+Everything is same as parport_register_driver, but it will use the device-model
+and will register the driver under /sys/bus/parport/driver. Just like
+parport_register_driver it will also call the attach callback function but the
+differences being attach wil now return its success or error code and the
+reference of the driver is also passed to the attach so that it can be used
+when calling parport_register_dev.

+DESCRIPTION
+
+It is same as parport_register_device, and it should be only used if your
+driver is using the device-model, that is you have registered your driver
+using parport_register_drv.
