Hi,
So far the only platform device for m68k (not in mainline) is Michael's EtherNAT driver, cfr. arch/m68k/atari/config.c. Note that that one registers the platform device unconditionally, as there's no magic predictor for its presence in the firmware or machine tables.
There's no magic predictor, but as I know what address to poke in order to probe for a potential EtherNAT, the device register could be conditionalized (and the hwreg_present() call removed from the driver). As soon as I have untangled myself from the SCSI code, and the intricacies of building Debian kernel images :-( Michael -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-m68k" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
