Porting Device Driver to 2.6

[Alex Holeczy]

How do you register the device release function for a generic device under 
kernel 2.6?  It appears that sound cards have a method for registering a 
free function.

Using the kernel 2.4 there was a 'release' element in the dev_link_t 
structure used to register the device release function.  The 'release' 
element does not exists in the dev_link_t structure for the 2.6 kernel.

Currently I am call my 'release' function in the detach function.

Thanks,
Alex
