Hi Greg,

you advised me to use the "class" sysfs category which I did. But I've
read at LWN that there is a long-term plan to get rid of this category
altogether. So may I ask you the same question I asked some time ago.

UBI works on top of MTD devices. MTD device may perfectly well support
the device/driver/bus model. But how this model does not really fit UBI
because we have no bus.

Please, advice me, should I keep using the "class" category which seems
fine for me or should I use the device/driver/bus stuff? What do I do
with bus then? I tried this some time ago and things did not work with
NULL bus.

Thanks,
Artem.
