Subject: Remove slashed from disk names when creation dev names in sysfs patch in stable? (was: Re: [PATCH 00/17] -stable review)

Hi all,

Shouldn't Neil Brown's patch be included in -stable too? It lets one use
software raid on top of a Promise SX8 SATA controller:

http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0601.1/1634.html

To my untrained eyes the patch seems simple enough, and it fixes a real
bug.

Please forgive me if this is not proper -stable material.

Kind regards, Sander
