Hi,

Loading tun.ko module breaks on sysfs...

> [root@localhost misc]# pwd
> /sys/class/misc
> [root@localhost misc]# ls
> dac960_gam device-mapper net/tun psaux
> [root@localhost misc]# cd net\/tun
> bash: cd: net/tun: No such file or directory
> [root@localhost misc]#


Why not just make it in misc? why net/tun seeing as everything else is just dumped there. Patch below.
