no .probe?
Originally i added the probe here, but it cause the driver .probe
called twice. after i use platform_driver_probe to register the driver
loading process, the duplicated probe issue resolved.

why is the probe done here? Put differently, what prevents you from
using a 'normal' platform driver, and do the leds_setup in the .probe()?
At first ,I used the normal platform driver framework, however tt
cause the driver .probe called twice. after i use
platform_driver_probe to register the driver loading process, the
duplicated probe issue resolved.
This sounds very odd...
this looks like a conflict with the ACPI subsystem finding a device and
probing the driver that's associated with the PNP0C09 HID, and then this
module __init creating a device manually which leads to a second probe
Neither the platform_device_register_simple() nor
platform_driver_probe() seem necessary?Because this privacy acpi driver file has dependency on the ec handle,
so i want to determine if the driver can be loaded basing on the EC ID
PNP0C09 matching.
So far,It works well for me to register the privacy driver with the
register sequence.
Dose it hurt to keep current registering process with
platform_driver_probe used?
