Hi, I want to move the Bt848 driver to /sys/dev/bktr Here is why..... The Bt848 driver (bktr) is contained in one file (/sys/pci/brooktree848.c) and currently runs to about 7000 lines. I've broken the driver down into 4 smaller files which cleanly splits the functionality (tuner, audio, card probing, Bt848 programming) With all the new .c and .h files, the new Bt848 driver consists of about 9 files now instead of 1. Rather than commit 8 new files to /sys/pci I would rather move the whole lot to /sys/dev/bktr and keep them neatly in their own directory (just like all the USB files are in one place) Splitting the files up makes it easier to maintain, easier to understand and easier to update. So, does anyone see any problems with this?
