Subject: [PATCH v2 02/13] storage-by-alias: drop fake cdev
Date: Tue, 09 Dec 2025 13:51:21 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251209-devfs-v2-2-62ae16698cff@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251209-devfs-v2-0-62ae16698cff@pengutronix.de>
storage-by-alias creates its own cdev, but that is never used. The only
purpose is to create a cdev with its own device node which otherwise
links to the original cdev. This means we can drop all the cdev
operations and use the newly created devfs_create_link_node() with the
same effect.
