Subject: [PATCH 4/4] driver core: Implement shadow directory support for device classes.

Message-ID: <m1r6n52e5c.fsf_-_ at ebiederm.dsl.xmission.com>



This patch enables shadowing on every class directory if struct class
has shadow_ops.

In addition device_del and device_rename were modified to use
sysfs_delete_link and sysfs_rename_link respectively to ensure
when these operations happen on devices whos classes have
shadow operations that they work properly.
