What is a Framer?

Have the CODEC driver match on "lantiq,pef2256-codec" and let it instantiate itself. Your first version using of_platform_populate() was closer to the mark. > + if (!count) > + return 0; > + > + audio_devs = kcalloc(count, sizeof(*audio_devs), GFP_KERNEL); > + if (!audio_devs) > + return -ENOMEM; > + > + for (i = 0; i < count; i++) { > + (audio_devs + i)->name = "lantiq-pef2256-codec"; > + (audio_devs + i)->of_compatible = compatible; > + (audio_devs + i)->id = i; > + } > + > + ret = mfd_add_devices(pef2256->dev, 0, audio_devs, count, NULL, 0, NULL); > + kfree(audio_devs); > + return ret; > +} -- Lee Jones [李琼斯]
