- acpi_bus_unregister_driver-make-void.patch removed from -mm tree

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

 



The patch titled

     acpi_bus_unregister_driver(): make void

has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename is

     acpi_bus_unregister_driver-make-void.patch

This patch was probably dropped from -mm because
it has now been merged into a subsystem tree or
into Linus's tree, or because it was folded into
its parent patch in the -mm tree.


From: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@xxxxxx>

Nobody looks at the return value, and this brings it into line with
pci_unregister_driver(), etc.  Also removed validation of the driver
pointer passed in to register and unregister.  More consistent, and we'll
find bugs faster if we fault rather than returning an error that's ignored.

Also makes internal functions acpi_device_unregister() and
acpi_driver_detach() void, since nobody uses their returns either.
