This patch introduces the use of iio_device_register and does away with the call to the corressponding unregister function in the probe and remove functions of the driver respectively. Signed-off-by: Himangi Saraogi <himangi774@xxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Julia Lawall <julia.lawall@xxxxxxx>
No, you changed the relative order in which iio_device_unregister() and adis_cleanup_buffer_and_trigger() are called, this opens up the way for race conditions. Rule of thumb: Don't convert drivers to managed functions if this will change the order in which functions will called on device removal.
