Hi Pantelis,

can you check if your patches become simpler on top of the changes
in this tree:

http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/block.git/shortlog/refs/heads/configfs.2

I recently started using configfs and came up with this to avoid
the gigantic amounts of boilerplate code required for configfs
attributes at the moment.  I plan to send it out soon.
