If this is an issue it's going to be much more useful to have the boards select their MFD cores than have random function drivers do that, in most situations it's not actually going to be useful to select the core driver as the core driver itself needs something to select either the I2C or SPI bus interface for the device in order to actually communicate with it. Remember that this is for embedded systems where the user will normally have a pretty good idea what's on their system, someone will have had to explicitly plumb the device into the board anyway. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
