As the LED is registered using the leds_class, I think
platform_add_devices() couldn't be used here.
Lots of platform codes don't check the returned
value of platform_add_devices(). Should we care about a LED or ADC
registration failure (is the following snippet OK?)?
static int __init ts5500_init(void)
{
[...]
pdev = platform_device_register_simple("ts5500", -1, NULL, 0);
if (IS_ERR(pdev)) {
ret = PTR_ERR(pdev);
goto release_mem;
}
platform_set_drvdata(pdev, ts5500);
ret = sysfs_create_group(&pdev->dev.kobj,
&ts5500_attr_group);
if (ret)
goto release_pdev;
led_classdev_register(&pdev->dev, &ts5500_led_cdev);
if (ts5500->adc) {
ts5500_adc_pdev.dev.parent = &pdev->dev;
platform_device_register(&ts5500_adc_pdev);
}
return 0;
release_pdev:
platform_device_unregister(pdev);
release_mem:
kfree(ts5500);
return ret;
}
device_initcall(ts5500_init);
Thanks,
