select on sysFs-entry does not pend anymore

[Michael Lawnick]

Hi *,

on porting a driver from 2.6.29 to 2.6.32 I had to notice that select()
on a sysFs-entry seems not to pend anymore (no more wait for kernel-side
sysfs_notify()). I checked on different architectures (MIPS, PPC, x86),
all the same result :-(
Was this support dropped intentionally or by accident?
The code of sysfs_notify() is still in kernel, but I see no sense in it
if select is not possible.
Any workaround known that is as easy as the original?
