pktcdvd -> sysfs warning with 2.6.27

From: Nix
Date: Sun Oct 12 2008 - 09:25:26 EST


At the very end of my startup scripts, I say

pktsetup cdrw /dev/cdrw

to get the stuff in /etc/pktcdvd set up right.

As of 2.6.27 this has started complaining:

pktcdvd: writer pktcdvd0 mapped to hde
------------[ cut here ]------------

=======================
---[ end trace 1cdd10ab78ee5bc6 ]---

For the life of me I can't see where pkt_sysfs_dev_new() is being called
more than once: indeed, from the trace above GCC has inlined it into
pkt_setup_dev() as a static function called from only one place...
