[PATCH] Documentation: i2c: drop unnecessary .owner field in examples

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@xxxxxxxx>

 Currently there are a few drivers that still set the .owner
 in the i2c_driver structure - all of which are reported by
 coccinelle (scripts/coccinelle/api/platform_no_drv_owner.cocci)
 and there are no cases that set the .onwer and do not call any
 of the functions that set the .owner field anyway in any of the
 drivers (checked by a modified coccinelle script based on the
 above) so it seems that the examples are no longer valid and
 .owner = THIS_MODULE, can be removed here.

 While at it an obvious typo (new new) was also fixed.
