From: Grant Likely <grant.likely@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 21 Jul 2010 17:40:00 -0600 > of_platform_bus was being used in the same manner as the platform_bus. > The only difference being that of_platform_bus devices are generated > from data in the device tree, and platform_bus devices are usually > statically allocated in platform code. Having them separate causes > the problem of device drivers having to be registered twice if it > was possible for the same device to appear on either bus. > > This patch removes of_platform_bus_type and registers all of_platform > bus devices and drivers on the platform bus instead. A previous patch > made the of_device structure an alias for the platform_device structure, > and a shim is used to adapt of_platform_drivers to the platform bus. > > After all of of_platform_bus drivers are converted to be normal platform > drivers, the shim code can be removed. > > Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: David S.
