[PATCH 0/5] Driver Probe Deferral Mechanism

G, Manjunath Kondaiah
2011-10-07T05:33:05Z

Original patch posted at:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1194346

Enhancements done to above patch:
- checkpatch warning fixes
- added Kconfig symbol CONFIG_PROBE_DEFER
- replacing normal workqueue with singlethread_workqueue
- handling -EPROBE_DEFER error

Apart from that, OMAP HSMMC and GPIO drivers are adopted to use
deferral probe mechanism and successfully tested on omap3 beagle
board.

Applies cleanly on top of v3.1-rc8

G, Manjunath Kondaiah (3):
drivercore: add new error value for deferred probe
gpiolib: handle deferral probe error
omap: hsmmc: use platform_driver_register

Grant Likely (1):
drivercore: Add driver probe deferral mechanism

Mark Brown (1):
regulator: Support driver probe deferral
