[PATCH 2/6] driver: make struct bus_type::probe optional

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

 



Newly introduce soc_bus_type doesn't define .probe, which would crash
once a driver is registered on that bus. Do as Linux does and defer
to the driver probe function if there's no bus probe function and
treat non-existence of either as a successful probe.

This has the added benefit that it will allow us to drop very simple bus
probe functions that just call the driver probe and do nothing else.
