This small series of patches will enable devm API in the driver when applicable. The patch contains two parts: 1st part enables powering down the device in probe function, 2nd part changes the API to devm when applicable. The first commit has been added for better visualization of what will happen when the devm API is used - the whole remove function is not needed, but we still need to power down the device from somewhere. History: Since v5: * split the patch into two commits: (1) power down the device in probe, (2) use devm API when applicable * devm_add_action -> devm_add_action_or_reset Since v4: * on devm_add_action fail, call the action on error handling * move the devm_add_action just after spi_setup - this will call the action on more error paths in probe (fail in: ad7280_chain_setup, ad7280_channel_init, ad7280_attr_init) Since v3: * use devm_add_action with software power down * the whole remove call back is not needed anymore Since v2: * iio_device_register -> devm_iio_device_register Since v1: * request_threaded_irq -> devm_request_threaded_irq Slawomir Stepien (2): staging: iio: adc: ad7280a: power down the device on error in probe staging: iio: adc: ad7280a: use devm_* APIs drivers/staging/iio/adc/ad7280a.c | 95 +++++++++++++------------------ 1 file changed, 39 insertions(+), 56 deletions(-) -- 2.19.1
