This is simply wrong (and in this case even lead to crash in some circumstances).
drm_err() may not be used here. That's my point in previous discussions.
Independently on the subsystem the ->probe() for the sake of consistency and
being informative should only rely on struct device *dev,
I'm not sure how drm_err works,
It's a macro.
but struct drm_device does have a struct device *dev as well.
Yes, but only when it's initialized.
Anyways, this is something I'll leave for Thomas to reply.
The code above is wrong independently on his reply :-)
I'm kinda stuck between contrasting views of 2 kernel maintainers lol,
so I said let Thomas reply.
Sure. I also want him to clarify my question about potential drm_err_probe().
These threads get a little lengthy. What is the question?
Best regards
Thomas
