Subject: [PATCH (Option 2)] of/i2c: fix module load order issue caused by of_i2c.c
Date: Fri, 24 Sep 2010 16:15:18 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100924221458.28357.58921.stgit@angua> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100924221313.28357.61419.stgit@angua>
Commit 959e85f7, "i2c: add OF-style registration and binding" caused a
module dependency loop where of_i2c.c calls functions in i2c-core, and
i2c-core calls of_i2c_register_devices() in of_i2c. This means that
when i2c support is built as a module when CONFIG_OF is set, then
neither i2c_core nor of_i2c are able to be loaded.
This patch fixes the problem by moving the of_i2c_register_devices()
calls back into the device drivers. Device drivers already
specifically request the core code to parse the device tree for
devices anyway by setting the of_node pointer, so it isn't a big
deal to also call the registration function. The drivers just become
slightly more verbose.
