Hi Stephen,

Absolutely, my patch is wrong ; comment below explains struct is filled
afterwards.Sorry.
Greg, should I send you a revert or maybe we could standardize that driver ? (it
seems it's the only one to work that way).

static const struct of_device_id uio_of_genirq_match[] = {
        { /* This is filled with module_parm */ },
        { /* Sentinel */ },
};

Regards,
Fabian
