There are a lot of useful guides and manuals all over the net for using the 
PRUs on the BBB. Ex: 
http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/PRU_Training:_Hands-on_Labs#LAB_4:_Introduction_to_Linux_driver
But none of them seem to be applicable to the newer images/kernel. Either 
the sysfs setup is wrong or those interfaces just don't exist.

What is the best way to get started on PRU programming, *using the latest 
kernel*?
I don't want to go back to an older image as I need the improved network 
latency provided by the 4.14 kernel (getting almost 30-40us better latency 
over UDP, don't know how or why). Image info below.
