Hi,

The formatting of /proc/misc broke for cpu_dma_latency. This causes programs
reading from /proc/misc to complain. For example:

cryptsetup luksClose /dev/sdX
/proc/misc: No entry for device-mapper found
Is device-mapper driver missing from kernel?

With Linux 3.2-rc1:
60 network_throughput
61 network_latency
62
236 device-mapper
237 loop-control
175 agpgart
144 nvram
231 snapshot
184 microcode
227 mcelog
63 vga_arbiter

With Linux 3.1:
60 network_throughput
61 network_latency
62 cpu_dma_latency
236 device-mapper
237 loop-control
175 agpgart
144 nvram
231 snapshot
184 microcode
227 mcelog
63 vga_arbiter

Cheers,

- Udo
