+Subject: [PATCH] platform: use driver name to detect IBM z-System CTC devices
+ (rh #1212118)
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+We used to detect CTC devices according to the interface name. But that does
+not work anymore due to systemd renaming the devices.
+Let's use driver name for the detection instead. The driver is called 'ctcm'.
