2.5 and devfs versioning

{pts/2}% dmesg | head -1
Linux version 2.5.75-1borsmp ...

{pts/2}% dmesg | grep devfs
Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=2575-1borsmp ro root=345 devfs=mount
devfs: v1.22 (20021013) Richard Gooch ([email protected])

well, this is not quite correct to put it mildly. It has been so much changed that IMHO it needs own version just to avoid confusion.

Just rip out the whole printk then. Componentes that are maintained inside the kernel tree don't need version numbers.

So I guess this would be right.
