Subject: [PATCH RESEND] timbuart: Support for beeing probed more than once
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2009 14:25:31 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4AB8C23B.3020309@mocean-labs.com> (raw)
There was a problem in the current implementation where a global static
uart_driver struct was used. The same struct was reused every time the
driver got probed. Since the struct has a state within the serial core
it can not be reused.
A uart_driver struct is added to the timbuart_port struct which is
allocated per platform device.
The probe and remove functions are declared __devinit and __devexit.
