Subject: [PATCH 5/5] make driver's name be const char *
Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2005 02:34:05 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200504260234.05750.dtor_core@ameritech.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200504260229.03866.dtor_core@ameritech.net>

Driver core:
  change driver's, bus's, class's and platform device's names
  to be const char * so one can use
            const char *drv_name = "asdfg";
  when initializing structures.
  Also kill couple of whitespaces.
