Subject: [PATCH 0/17] mfd sharing support (v2, part 1)
Date: Fri, 11 Feb 2011 17:57:35 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110211175735.0d4258dc@queued.net> (raw)

Hi,

Here's my second attempt[0] of the MFD sharing.  Rather than go
through with the whole thing, this is just the part which makes
mfd_cells always available to MFD clients.  I'm planning to later 
remove driver_data, and just use a (renamed) platform_data as a
general cleanup, but for now..  Here's the first part.

Again, the goal here is to allow MFD clients to share MFD driver
resources.  Each platform device that an MFD driver creates has
the mfd_cell that created it located in its platform_data area.  For
drivers that were using the mfd_cell's platform_data field for other
purposes, this is now available by grabbing the mfd_cell and looking at
its platform_data field.

[0] first attempt -
