Rediff'ed and attached.

N.B. subsystem can not be easily extracted from $DEVPATH (hotplug
case). It is reported as a path under /sys/devices/ hierarchy. And the
rule of thumb (the third component of the path is subsystem) doesn't
hold then (e.g. sound devices are reported as
/sys/devices/..../sound/card0/pcm..., notice card0). That is why I
concat path to be getenv("SUBSYSTEM") + "/" + device_name in hotplug
case.

Let us settle down the syntax/code. Of course it is hard to document
constantly moving target.
