[PATCH] merge kobject_uevent and kobject_hotplug
The distinction between hotplug and uevent does not make sense these
days, netlink events are the default.
udev depends entirely on netlink uevents. Only during early boot and
in initramfs, /sbin/hotplug is needed. So merge the two functions and
provide only one interface without all the options.
The netlink layer got a nice generic interface with named slots
recently, which is probably a better facility to plug events for
subsystem specific events.
Also the new poll() interface to /proc/mounts is a nicer way to
notify about changes than sending events through the core.
The uevents should only be used for driver core related requests to
userspace now.
