2.6.0t7: /proc/partitions names not devfs like...

Hi !

I'm using devfs on a small 2.6.0t7 kernel and I have software which relies on
the exactitude of /proc/partitions.
The problem is that in /proc/partition I have something like

3 0 19925880 hda
3 1 19920568 hda1

where a 2.4.x kernel gave me:

3 0 19925880 ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc
3 1 19920568 ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1

I've enabled the following options:

CONFIG_DEVFS_FS=y
CONFIG_DEVFS_MOUNT=y

Any idea, why this has changed ?

Cheers,
