[PATCH 1/9] Consolidate driver_probe_done() loops into one place

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

 



From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

there's a few places that currently loop over driver_probe_done(), and
I'm about to add another one. This patch abstracts it into a helper
to reduce duplication.
