Subject: Staging: comedi: add comedi_num_legacy_minors module parameter
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1dd33ab8a9397793d65b9fc090174ff7cdfaff95;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

Staging: comedi: add comedi_num_legacy_minors module parameter

As suggested the legacy device count is set to zero. A new module
parameter for comedi_fops allows setting the number of legacy devices:
comedi_num_legacy_minors. The default is zero.
