Sorry, but each time Pavel jumps in, he just copies half of a statement and any reply gets misunderstood. I did not even mention platform_device, still you disagree to device tree for the *slave driver*? > > This patchset from Rob is the way I have been saying it should be done > for years now.

Except that IMHO Rob's approach lacks functions we need (which maybe can added). > and fits into the > rest of the kernel driver/device model much better.
