What i2c bus controller are you using? Are you registering it's platform data very late (E.G. after you register the platform data for gpiomux)? If you do register the platform data in the correct order, things SHOULD work correctly as busses are listed in drivers/i2c/Makefile before muxes, but alternatively you could play with the init order (E.G. use subsys_initcall instead of module_init in the bus driver, see b8680784875 for an example). -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard -- 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
