This gets repeated with each additional functional reasource.

The problem here is the call to proc_mkdir() when the directory already
exists. Each nubus_board gets a directory, such as /proc/bus/nubus/s/
where s is the hex slot number. Therefore, store the 'procdir' pointer
in struct nubus_board instead of struct nubus_dev.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
