Thanks! That solved the problem at least as far as getting the entries
to show up in sysfs... though somehow now I'm having problems with the
I/O buffers, and a cat of the sysfs file shows no output (not even a
blank line). I added a couple printk's to one of the routines, and the
values are being read correctly from the data structure, but no
working I/O (cannot set the values either, per printk results). The
dmesg output shows the printk results, so the functions are getting
called. Even the count from sprintf is correct, and the resulting
buffer looks like it should... though with the extra blank line I
added in the last printk:

static ssize_t xpad_show_dead_zone(struct device *dev, char *buf)
{
	struct usb_xpad *xpad = to_xpad(dev);
	int count;
	printk(KERN_INFO "Dead zone is %d\n", xpad->dead_zone);
	count = sprintf(buf, "%d\n", xpad->dead_zone);
	printk(KERN_INFO "Count is %d\n", count);
	printk(KERN_INFO "Buffer is %s\n", buf);
	return count;
}

Unless that is some common error that is obvious from its description,
I will have to chase the bug down tomorrow or Wednesday. It's getting
a bit late here.

Thanks,
Mike
