Hello, this is v2 of the series introducing devfs_create_partitions. With the new syntax creating partitions is easier to parse for humans, it has support to create partitions without holes inbetween without the need to explicitly calculate the offsets and the code generated for the callers is smaller. I compared the size of arch/arm/boards/a9m2410/a9m2410.o with and without the series with the kernel's bloat-o-meter, with the following result: add/remove: 1/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 84/-104 (-20) function old new delta a9m2410_nand0_partitions - 84 +84 a9m2410_devices_init 296 192 -104 (Well, the size advantage is a *bit* relativized by the growth of fs/devfs-core.o: add/remove: 3/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 508/-124 (384) function old new delta __devfs_add_partition.part - 376 +376 devfs_create_partitions - 128 +128 new - 4 +4 devfs_add_partition 296 172 -124 Don't know what "new" is above.) Compared to (implicit) v1 of this series I dropped the compound literals and used named static arrays instead as wished by Sebastian Hesselbarth and Sascha Hauer.
