[RFC PATCHv4 0/7] HSI framework and drivers

[Carlos Chinea <carlos.chinea@nokia.com>]

Hi !

Here you have the fourth round of the HSI framework patches.

The patch series introduces the HSI framework, an SSI driver
for OMAP and a generic character device for HSI/SSI devices.

SSI, which is a legacy version of HSI, is used to connect the application
engine with the cellular modem on the Nokia N900.

In this round we have added/fixed:

- Address some comments from Tony Lindgren and Peter Henn.
- Add module support to the HSI framework.
- Fix sparse warnings in OMAP SSI driver.
- Fix module license.
- Remove spurious udev events generated by the HSI framework.
- Avoid removal of a controller claimed by a client.
- Fix hsi_char client device removal.

TODO:

- Move OMAP SSI to use omap hwmod

I would very glad to continue getting feedback about this proposal.

This patch series is based on 2.6.37-rc1.
