zdev: Trigger generic_ccw devices on any kernel module loads. #44

Closed xnox closed 5 years ago

xnox commented 5 years ago

Generic CCW device can use any driver, and the value of the driver is not known ahead of time. To avoid the race between loading and binding a kernel module, and devices added - retrigger generic-ccw devices on any kernel module load.

Fixes https://github.com/ibm-s390-tools/s390-tools/issues/37

Just the pull-request for now, will be testing this on my z/VMs now with generic-ccw.
