# 
# Exposing the binary blob which is the md 'super-block' via sysfs
# doesn't really fit with the sysfs model, and since commit
#
#  8118a859dc7abd873193986c77a8d9bdb877adc8
#
# it doesn't actually work at all (as the size of the blob is often one page).
#
# (akpm: as in, fs/sysfs/file.c:fill_read_buffer() goes BUG)
# 
# So just remove it altogether.  It isn't really useful.
