Can't we just use dev->parent in the omap2-nand driver? The omap2-nand platform_device is created by platform_device_alloc. The created platform_device dev parent isn't by default set to the GPMC dev. I didn't think this was the right approach to manually set the parent property. However, taking a look at other usages of platform_device_alloc it seems this is actually pretty common. If your ok with this then I can go that route. > > cheers, > -roger -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
