[PATCH v2] [media] rc: ite-cir: Initialise ite_dev::rdev earlier

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

 



ite_dev::rdev is currently initialised in ite_probe() after
rc_register_device() returns.  If a newly registered device is opened
quickly enough, we may enable interrupts and try to use ite_dev::rdev
before it has been initialised.  Move it up to the earliest point we
can, right after calling rc_allocate_device().

Unlike the previous version, this will apply cleanly to the media
staging/for_v3.6 branch.
