Since this can be fixed via sysfs at runtime, I'm not really interested in a patch.

We're actively trying to move all this stuff out to userspace where hotplug can take care of it.

Hmm, but who should maintain the exception lists then? When they are in the kernel there is at least one central place.

The hotplug folks already want it. At least, that's my understanding.

Since this will probably take some time to do it would be good if you could first put Bernd's patch in, and then later when you really move it move it together with all other exceptions. Otherwise there is a risk that it gets lost. -Andi
