Apparently, it isn't, as I didn't explicitly handle it. Frankly, I
always thought that the kobject ans sysfs stuff is taken care of
somewhere in cdev_init() and doesn't require any special handling. So I
guess a little code reading is due here.

Thanks, but once I have a sysfs node, I'll manage by myself. There is an
excellent primer.
