From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Masahiro Yamada Subject: [PATCH] of: drop symbols declared by _OF_DECLARE() from modules Date: Thu, 14 Jan 2016 13:33:06 +0900 Message-ID: <1452745987-22146-1-git-send-email-yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Return-path: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org To: devicetree@vger.kernel.org Cc: Peter Hurley , Arnd Bergmann , linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org, Rob Herring , Masahiro Yamada , Frank Rowand , Rob Herring , linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, Grant Likely List-Id: devicetree@vger.kernel.org The users of this macro (OF_EARLYCON_DECLARE, CLK_OF_DECLARE, IRQCHIP_DECLARE, etc.) are only parsed in the early boot stage. Such symbols contained in modules are never used. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada --- OF_EARLYCON_DECLARE() is declared in several tristate drivers. This patch makes each low-level driver be free from taking care of it.
