[PATCH] mfd: lpc_ich: one uninitialized cell is no error

[PATCH] mfd: lpc_ich: one uninitialized cell is no error

[Paul Bolle]

At every boot of an (outdated) laptop lpc_ich prints an error:
    lpc_ich 0000:00:1f.0: I/O space for GPIO uninitialized

But if one looks at lpc_ich's probe function one notices that the code
only cares if both lpc_ich_init_wdt() and lpc_ich_init_gpio() fail to
add any cells. So stop treating the failure to add a single cell as an
error. Those messages can be printed at notice level. And then only warn
if no cells were added.

0) This patch was written on top of v3.7-rc4 and tested on v3.6.7.

1) Please note that this patch prints a warning when no MFD cells are
added at all. I didn't make that an error because I'm not sure there's
anything one can do if this happens. Is there?

Applied, thanks.

Cheers,
