Subject: [PATCH 0/6] Add misc device handling.

Following patch series use misc device instead of character device
creation by kernel space (which is obvious obsolete and wrong).
We add limitation for maximum 3 devices to be connected simultaneously.
This interface is used only for testing and not influence basic device 
functionality.

Marek Belisko (6):
  staging: ft1000: Remove functions which create devices in kernel
    space.
  staging: ft1000: Use misc device instead self created device.
  staging: ft1000: Remove unused variables.
  staging: ft1000: Remove unused headers.
  staging: ft1000: Remove dead code
  staging: ft1000: Check return value of ft1000_CreateDevice().
