In-Reply-To: <1258486848.992.407.camel-/vjeY7uYZjrPXfVEPVhPGq6RkeBMCJyt@public.gmane.org> (Ralph Campbell's message of "Tue, 17 Nov 2009 11:40:48 -0800")

Rather than have the device driver call a new function that then calls
it back, how about if we just add a parameter to the
ib_register_device() call that is the callback to add the sysfs stuff?
This would let us avoid the race where the device is registered but not
all the sysfs stuff is created yet.

 - R.
