You are trying to "out smart" the kernel by getting rid of a warning message that was explicitly put there for you to do something. To think that by just providing an "empty" function you are somehow fulfilling the API requirement is quite bold, don't you think? This has to be fixed. I didn't put that warning in there for no good reason. Please go read the documentation again... greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-hwmon" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
