From david-b@pacbell.net Wed Aug 30 14:19:47 2006 From: David Brownell To: Greg KH Subject: PM: add kconfig option for deprecated .../power/state files Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2006 13:54:36 -0700 Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200608301354.37478.david-b@pacbell.net> Add a new PM_SYSFS_DEPRECATED config option to control whether or not the /sys/devices/.../power/state files are provided. This will make it easier to get rid of that mechanism when the time comes, and to verify that userspace tools work right without it.
