Subject: [PATCH v2] platform/surface: surfacepro3_button: Stop setting acpi_device_name()
Date: Tue, 07 Jul 2026 13:12:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <12927239.O9o76ZdvQC@rafael.j.wysocki> (raw)

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
Subject: [PATCH v1] platform/surface: surfacepro3_button: Stop setting acpi_device_name()

The driver sets acpi_device_name() to initialize an input class device
name initialization and print a message on probe success, but the input
class device name can be set directly to the "Surface Pro 3/4 Buttons"
string literal and used for printing the message.

Make the driver do so, stop setting acpi_device_name() in it and drop
the symbol specifically defined for this purpose.

No intentional functional impact.

This will facilitate the removal of device_name from struct
acpi_device_pnp in the future.

v1 -> v2:
   * Use input->name for printing the final message in
     surface_button_probe() (Andy)
   * Add R-by from Yu
