I noticed that if you modprobe uhci but have no such hardware (it was
an alpha, with ohci, and I was tired) the module fails to load,
obviously, but it leaves a proc file behind, /proc/driver/uhci.
The attached patch should fix that, it seemed simple enough. It's not
tested beyond the fact that it compiles, but I have a good feeling about
it.
The patch is against 2.4.20.

Wrong on most accounts. const Foo *foo; and Foo const *foo; mean the same: foo
being a pointer to const Foo. const Foo const *foo; would mean the same but is
illegal (double const). You are confusing this with Foo * const foo; and const
Foo * const foo; respectively. -David Kastrup, comp.os.linux.development.system
