I don't know on which systems the i2c-pca-isa driver is used these days, so I don't know if these can instantiate platform devices easily. I guess it shouldn't be too difficult to update the i2c-pca-isa driver so that it still works after your changes, then you can tag it as deprecated, and we wait for 6 months or so before we remove it? -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ i2c mailing list i2c-GZX6beZjE8VD60Wz+7aTrA@public.gmane.org http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/i2c
