The idea actually is doing this for all other driver types, too (eg. spi, pci, usb, ...).

That would be nice, but, unfortunately, we have lots of devices which aren't attached to any (probing-capable) bus. That's why we have things like oftree, etc. > Please no, I don't see why this is even needed. The idea is getting rid of all the init code, which all just does the same, just calls some *_register() function. --mtx --- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult Free software and Linux embedded engineering info@xxxxxxxxx -- +49-151-27565287
