The real problem is below: err = request_irq(dev->irq, intel_mid_i2c_isr, IRQF_SHARED, mrst->adap.name, mrst); Using the adapter name to request the IRQ is silly. The very same issue was fixed in i2c-pca-platform recently: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=323584436db0cb05286425d4dfd9516fce88487f You want to use a short name for the interrupt. Either the driver name, or if you really want something device-specific, the bus device name. -- Jean Delvare -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
