[PATCH] cxacru: Create sysfs attributes in atm_start instead of bind

From: Simon Arlott
Date: Sat Apr 28 2007 - 05:35:39 EST


Since usbatm doesn't set the usb_interface driver data until after calling bind and heavy_init, it would be NULL when the sysfs attributes are read. Reading the MAC address from atm_dev before atm_dev exists would have been be possible too.

Calling create_device_file in atm_start will avoid this problem, and the data is useless until the first status poll runs. However, it must be ready before a status poll does a printk on line status change otherwise userspace could react before the files exist.

For completeness I've moved remove_device_file to atm_stop so it's not called in unbind when it's not needed. There's no point starting ADSL if atm_start could still fail either.

Oops.
