See http://www.infradead.org/rpr.html Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org With Andy's conversion of WMI to the driver model the GUIDs should be our device ids. Which means WMI can support the dynamic device ID model, where you can echo a id to sysfs to bind an id - that way people could add the GUIDs on demand to the pass through driver if they need them even with the whitelist approach.
