IB/ipoib: Log sysfs 'dev_id' accesses from userspace
Some tools may currently be using only the deprecated attribute; let's print an elaborate and clear deprecation notice to kmsg. To do that, we have to replace the whole sysfs file, since we inherit the original one from netdev. Signed-off-by: Arseny Maslennikov <ar@cs.msu.ru> Signed-off-by: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>
