[PATCH 4/7] PCI hotplug: convert skeleton code to a kmalloc'edslot name

From: Alex Chiang
Date: Wed Aug 06 2008 - 01:12:26 EST



Callers of pci_hp_register() need to be converted from a
char name[] to a char *name.

This change allows pci_create_slot() to dynamically rename the
sysfs name of the slot in the event of a name collision.

Let's give future implementors a good example to copy from.
