The patch titled
spi: core and gpio expanders use subsys_init
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
spi-core-and-gpio-expanders-use-subsys_init.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: spi: core and gpio expanders use subsys_init
From: David Brownell <dbrownell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Make the SPI external GPIO expander drivers register themselves at
subsys_initcall() time when they're statically linked, and make the SPI
core do its driver model initialization earlier so that's safe.
SOC-integrated GPIOs are available starting very early -- often before
initcalls start to run, or earily in arch_initcall() at latest -- so this
improves consistency, letting more subsystems rely on GPIOs being usable
by their own subsys_initcall() code.
