1277 * device_create - creates a device and registers it with sysfs
1278 * @class: pointer to the struct class that this device should be registered to
1279 * @parent: pointer to the parent struct device of this new device, if any
1280 * @devt: the dev_t for the char device to be added
1281 * @fmt: string for the device's name
1282 *
1283 * This function can be used by char device classes. A struct device
1284 * will be created in sysfs, registered to the specified class.
1285 *
1286 * A "dev" file will be created, showing the dev_t for the device, if
1287 * the dev_t is not 0,0.
1288 * If a pointer to a parent struct device is passed in, the newly created
1289 * struct device will be a child of that device in sysfs.
1290 * The pointer to the struct device will be returned from the call.
1291 * Any further sysfs files that might be required can be created using this
1292 * pointer.
1293 *
1294 * Note: the struct class passed to this function must have previously
1295 * been created with a call to class_create().
