Virtualization - Jan 2013 - [RFC] virtio_console: Add DRIVER and INTERFACE to uevent.

From: Sjur Br?ndeland <sjur.brandeland at stericsson.com>

Add information so rproc-serial can be easily recogniced
from user space. Add the following information to uevent:
DRIVER=virtio_console|virtio_rproc_serial
INTERFACE=grand-parent/parent/name

Hi,

I need some way to identify the major/minor number for
the rproc-serial device, given the udev event. 
Review comments are welcomed.

Thanks,
Sjur

Hmm, I send all uevent questions to Greg KH (CC'd).

Thanks,
