Subject: [ 70/71] staging: comedi: dont hijack hardware device private data
Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2013 14:55:07 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130115225345.445093869@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130115225340.367496998@linuxfoundation.org>

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ian Abbott <abbotti@mev.co.uk>

commit c43435d7722134ed1fda58ce1025f41029bd58ad upstream.

comedi_auto_config() associates a Comedi minor device number with an
auto-configured hardware device and comedi_auto_unconfig() disassociates
it.  Currently, these use the hardware device's private data pointer to
point to some allocated storage holding the minor device number.  This
is a bit of a waste of the hardware device's private data pointer,
preventing it from being used for something more useful by the low-level
comedi device drivers.  For example, it would make more sense if
comedi_usb_auto_config() was passed a pointer to the struct
usb_interface instead of the struct usb_device, but this cannot be done
currently because the low-level comedi drivers already use the private
data pointer in the struct usb_interface for something more useful.

This patch stops the comedi core hijacking the hardware device's private
data pointer.  Instead, comedi_auto_config() stores a pointer to the
hardware device's struct device in the struct comedi_device_file_info
associated with the minor device number, and comedi_auto_unconfig()
calls new function comedi_find_board_minor() to recover the minor device
number associated with the hardware device.
