[PATCH v3] media: rc: Pospone ir raw decoders loading until really needed

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This changes rc_core to not load the IR decoders at load time,
postponing it to load only if a RC_DRIVER_IR_RAW device is registered
via rc_register_device.
We use a static boolean variable, to ensure decoders modules
are only loaded once.
Tested with rc-loopback device only.

v3: Fix scope of static bool: now it is local to relevant function.
v2: Fix broken logic in v1.
    Also, put raw_init as static instead of inside rc_dev
    struct to ensure loading is only tried the first time.
