I didn't bother to check if th resulting omap_device pointer was actually used. > I'm fine if you need to take my patch if there's urgent need to modify > these lines or otherwise I can carry it when sending an updated version > of my earlier McBSP cleanup set. Yeah, yours is a better patch and we should take that one. Feel free to add Acked-by: Kevin Hilman <khilman@xxxxxx> I'll include it in my series for reference also (because I need it due to modifying how platform_device is contained within an omap_device) but yours will probably make it upstream first since I'm about to go offline for ~2 weeks.
