News from the driver porting series

The LWN Porting Drivers to 2.6
series is currently going through an extensive review. Since the first
set of articles came out last February, quite a few things have changed and

halfway complete as of this writing; we should be able to finish within a
week or so.
Most of the articles require only small changes at most. The "creating
virtual filesystems with libfs" article, however, has been significantly
expanded, thanks to the addition of simple_fill_super(). For
those who are curious, the newer, bigger version of the article appears
