+ * @parent: pointer to a struct class_device that is the parent of this struct
+ * class_device.  If NULL, this class_device will show up at the root of the
+ * struct class in sysfs (which is probably what you want to have happen.)
+ * @release: pointer to a release function for this struct class_device.  If
+ * set, this will be called instead of the class specific release function.
