   4 Description:
   5         devfs has been unmaintained for a number of years, has unfixable
   6         races, contains a naming policy within the kernel that is
   7         against the LSB, and can be replaced by using udev.
   8         The files fs/devfs/*, include/linux/devfs_fs*.h were removed,
   9         along with the assorted devfs function calls throughout the
  10         kernel tree.
