Subject: [PATCH 1/2] gameport: Add helper macro for gameport_driver boilerplate
Date: Wed, 04 Apr 2012 11:32:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1333510350.15318.10.camel@phoenix> (raw)

This patch introduces the module_gameport_driver macro which is a convenience
macro for gameport driver modules similar to module_platform_driver. It is
intended to be used by drivers which init/exit section does nothing but
register/unregister the serio driver. By using this macro it is possible
to eliminate a few lines of boilerplate code per serio driver.

Based on work done by Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de> for other
busses (i2c and spi).
