		What: /sys/dev
		Date: April 2008
		KernelVersion: 2.6.26
		Contact: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
		Description: The /sys/dev tree provides a method to look up the sysfs
		path for a device using the information returned from
		stat(2). There are two directories, 'block' and 'char',
		beneath /sys/dev containing symbolic links with names of
		the form "<major>:<minor>". These links point to the
		corresponding sysfs path for the given device.

		Example:
		$ readlink /sys/dev/block/8:32
		../../block/sdc

		Entries in /sys/dev/char and /sys/dev/block will be
		dynamically created and destroyed as devices enter and
		leave the system.

		Description:
		The /sys/devices/system/memory contains a snapshot of the
		internal state of the kernel memory blocks. Files could be
		added or removed dynamically to represent hot-add/remove
		operations.

		What: /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/removable
		Date: June 2008
		Contact: Badari Pulavarty <pbadari@us.ibm.com>
		Description:
		The file /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/removable
		indicates whether this memory block is removable or not.
		This is useful for a user-level agent to determine
		identify removable sections of the memory before attempting
		potentially expensive hot-remove memory operation
