Hi,

In the Linux 2.6 code, dazuko_get_full_filename() ignores all device
files due to
this specific piece of code:

#ifndef DAZUKO_FIST
    if (!S_ISREG(xfs->inode->i_mode) && !S_ISLNK(xfs->inode->i_mode))
        return 0;
#endif

DAZUKO_FIST does not seem to be defined anywhere. Is there any specific
reason to filter
out /dev ? This is not so in the 2.4 codebase.

Regards,
Abhi.
