[PATCH] md: Remove the 'super' sysfs attribute from devices in an 'md' array.

From: NeilBrown
Date: Fri Mar 14 2008 - 00:38:49 EST



Exposing the binary blob which is the md 'super-block' via sysfs
doesn't really fit with the sysfs model, and since commit
8118a859dc7abd873193986c77a8d9bdb877adc8
it doesn't actually work at all (as the size of the blob is often one page).

So just remove it altogether. It isn't really useful.
