Lately, I have been experimenting how to improve the devm interface to make
writing device drivers easier and less error prone while also getting rid of
its subtle issues. I think it has more potential but still needs work and
definately conistency, especiall in its usage.
The first thing I come up with is a low hanging fruit regarding
devm_ioremap_resouce(). This function already checks if the passed resource is
valid and gives an error message if not. So, we can remove similar checks from
the drivers and get rid of a bit of code and a number of inconsistent error
strings.
If generally accepted, I'd suggest I rerun my scripts again when rc1 is out and
ask Linus to pull this branch [1] directly? This series is merely to show what
I am up to.
Thanks,
Wolfram
