I don't particularly have a problem with it, but I wouldn't normally try to filter out device drivers when the probe code simply won't get called. Considering it's paired with the previous patch that creates devices in the module init call, I'm assuming it is to support that use case. If so then I don't think it is a good idea. If there is another use case then maybe. g. -- 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
