What's the motivation behind this change? I'd expect the MFD device (which is the actual physical device) to make things like dev_ prints have an actual physical device which seems a bit more user friendly. =20 Making this change will also mean that things like regulator to regulator supplies are less obvious on non-DT systems as they'll wind up having to specify the subdevice, and on DT systems it'll change the binding from being for the parent device to the subdevice. --g3W8FGNyQaC+nhss Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJPt+AIAAoJEBus8iNuMP3de8IP/j3Zdd+5VDGQQ9ZKGzi4Pywj OYpQAKjSTMB9fSYnyzsMHx9aZWlkKSQby2DU/TJsW33UYTw4g/sTQon3tbXkTl+a 0FUNOuFYS4wghU8E/CZJ7ctn3hkKoxAbwwDVgZkQ1ThP0+o5CG4jY28eDnVA+5Bv 1UByPyzZ5JKNK/roCN50uqQu2hY3srVQAL3v/FdI6ZaBJJBmpAp6SztSMuRg98sU 3mjVPc7jwOKd7E2lUwnIJ502JlDdm+dU/e5H4hqW/E3HrEENuW6W2ABE88o0RHVZ ShfMNQEb12YuzbE9KNYoVNKHTsUHDmJkLXHVqwS0//nmNJCS1fpLDS/eUdyiDPLQ kIL8f/tw98ipM/xIpeAZazzuozdTX0HY8WBFQ9dKW6hleI05lWobYLYnfquBNN8j L+lrpf4Cx7BFMR3P9IOC9tQCJn+qOX1P5Wh5IMavdga4Qcl5dt2vuXo7sDF3qt9u zVLaAcdK/EAGADmtu7nNCzItuMagyU7AGN2igOqCuA0q+8NXwVREG6VpfmkWis++ gEUThG4vhZNIrbcSrLBji3bITIDb18qP5ZCheI6mDxzl+fjT40dQ+IwQfliX8NII scNbrEG7qom2ieT9gbp3tGhtFluxcCLDjk7Z65sLvxcDIlyfn+Db+RbcihH5/R3F 1NX5DzfTRLPalFF30bkd =wxAy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --g3W8FGNyQaC+nhss--
