Hi everybody, Here's a bunch of patches (on top of staging/v2.6.37) that remove the module_name argument to the v4l2_i2c_new_subdev* functions. The module name is used by those functions to load the module corresponding to the I2C sub-device being instanciated. As the I2C modules now support modalias (and have been for quite some time), the module name isn't necessary anymore. The first patch adds the ability to load I2C modules based on modaliases when the module name passed to the v4l_i2c_new_subdev* functions is NULL. This is never the case with the in-tree drivers, so there shouldn't be any regression. The 14 next patches modify all drivers that call those functions to pass a NULL module name. Patch 2/16 touches all the drivers that hardcode the module name directly when calling the function, and the remaining 13 patches do the same for driver that fetch the module name from platform data or from other sources (such as static tables). I've checked all I2C modules used by the drivers modified in those patches to make sure they have a proper module devices table. The last patch finally removes the module_name argument, as all callers now pass a NULL value. The code has obviously not been tested, as I lack the necessary hardware. I've tested the V4L2 core changes with the OMAP3 ISP driver. All x86 drivers have been compile-tested.
