I think it's a conceptual thing. Module means two things (IIUC):
(a) it is a run-time loadable module
(b) it's a piece of compartmentalized code
In this case the macro refers to (b). module_platform_driver()
resolves to module_driver() from <linux/device.h>
and it's clearly a core part of the device core and available
no matter whether the file is used as module at runtime or not.
It just simplifies the initcalls and that's no different depending
on whether the code is compiled-in or used as module.

I guess you mean if (micro->key) {} rather than the !invert,
but I get it, changed everywhere we check for != NULL like this.

Rather the other way around but you're right, it's better if
we keep it on one line so changed messages to a single oneliner
everywhere.

The best I can think of is converting to a for-loop but that
is just as hard to read I think :-/
Breaking out the readl() invitably result in two lines of code
like reading the flag before entering the while and once inside
the loop which is nastier IMO.

OK doing that for now.

No it's just like:
#ifdef CONFIG_SUSPEND
case PM_EVENT_SUSPEND:
return ops->suspend;
case PM_EVENT_RESUME:
return ops->resume;
#endif /* CONFIG_SUSPEND */

It's more like a "no new sub-architectures without DT support".
The SA1100 systems (such as this H3600 iPAQ) are in a "legacy"
category of architectures, that will probably never get converted
over to device tree. But they are compartmentalized so they're OK.

This MFD driver provided infrastructure for all the subdrivers, LEDs,
keys etc.
These may want to send messages through the core and wait for
the message to come back, or they may want to send off a
message and await its completion at another time. Since the
most common is to send the message and then immediately
wait for it to complete, but sometimes not, these inline helpers
are provided.
Example use in the battery driver:
static void micro_battery_work(struct work_struct *work)
{
(...)
struct ipaq_micro_msg msg_battery = {
.id = MSG_BATTERY,
};
(...)
/* First send battery message */
ipaq_micro_tx_msg_sync(mb->micro, &msg_battery);
if (msg_battery.rx_len < 4)
pr_info("ERROR");
/*
* Returned message format:
* byte 0: 0x00 = Not plugged in
* 0x01 = AC adapter plugged in
* byte 1: chemistry
* byte 2: voltage LSB
* byte 3: voltage MSB
* byte 4: flags
* byte 5-9: same for battery 2
*/
mb->ac = msg_battery.rx_data[0];
(...)
All other comments are fixed up.
I'm sending out a v2 targeted for v3.16.
