Ben:
After posting the patch below, I noticed that you were the person who originally added the bus notifier code. You don't see any problems with this code motion, do you?
Alan Stern
This patch (as1184) changes the location of the notifications in device_add() and device_del(). Now the BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE message is sent after dpm_sysfs_add(), which is necessary for clients that want to add attributes to the power/ subdirectory. The BUS_NOTIFY_DEL_DEVICE message is correspondingly moved before dpm_sysfs_remove().
