[PATCH] add sysfs support for ide tape
I was recently given an old Travan tape drive and asked to do something useful with it. The ide-scsi + st (+serverworks ide controller) combo results in a hard lockup of the machine which I have not had the energy to debug, so I turned to ide-tape (which seems to work). The system in question debian stable, using udev to manage /dev. The following patch to ide-tape.c allows udev to create the cdev nodes for my drive.
