Hi Krzysztof, Inline are the answers to your questions.

It is high probability that the device is in suspend state while charging (i.e. the user leaves the device to charge during night) and it is needed that the scheduled works to be executed as planned. I think when device is suspended (e.g. to RAM) no work will ever be executed. The timers (for delayed work) will not wake up the device... RTC could wake but this is different story. My proposal of deferred timers is affected by idle CPU time. Are you sure that you want to wake up from the system suspend? Oh, now I better understand it. I don't think I need this feature. Also, the expire times that I use in the driver are not defined in the datasheet, so it should not be a problem if they are fired later. So, I will use INIT_DEFERRABLE_WORK instead of INIT_DELAYED_WORK. > - replaced struct power_supply_desc rt9455_charger_desc with static const struct power_supply_desc rt9455_charger_desc > - replaced if (IS_ERR_OR_NULL(info->charger)) with if (IS_ERR(info->charger)) > - replaced {"RTK9455", 0} with { "RTK9455", 0 } > - removed .owner = THIS_MODULE > > Signed-off-by: Anda-Maria Nicolae <anda-maria.nicolae@xxxxxxxxx> You missed some of my comments. I mentioned wrong error paths around put_usb_phy in probe. They do not seem to be fixed... Now I see what you meant. I looked at usb_get_phy() implementation and I saw that I cannot return NULL. So I replaced IS_ERR_OR_NULL() with IS_ERR(). I did this in rt9455_remove() and in rt9455_irq_handler_thread() functions, too. Also, this replacement (IS_ERR() instead of IS_ERR_OR_NULL()) should also be done in other power charger drivers: drivers/power/pda_power.c lines 319, 375, 410, 445; drivers/power/ab8500_charger.c line 3651; drivers/power/twl4030_charger.c lines 642, 674 and 706. I will send the patch for RT9455 charger soon. I will also send a patch to replace IS_ERR_OR_NULL() with IS_ERR() in the drivers listed above. Just one hint - mostly new bindings are posted in separate patches at the beginning of the patchset. I actually don't mind. but separating them will probably give you higher chance of review from DT people. This is also mentioned in: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.txt Best regards, Krzysztof -- 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
