[RESEND PATCH 0/2] auxdisplay: img-ascii-lcd: Trivial fixes

[Javier Martinez Canillas]

Hello Andrew,

This series contains two trivial fixes for the img-ascii-lcd auxdisplay
driver. The first version was posted more than 2 months ago [0] and had
no feedback, so I'm resending with you as cc in case these can be picked
through your tree.

Best regards,
Javier

[RESEND PATCH 1/2] auxdisplay: img-ascii-lcd: Add a sentinel entry to OF device ID table

[Javier Martinez Canillas]

The OF device ID table doesn't have a sentinel NULL entry and so it
causes the following error:

FATAL: drivers/auxdisplay/img-ascii-lcd: struct of_device_id is not terminated with a NULL entry!
scripts/Makefile.modpost:91: recipe for target '__modpost' failed
make[1]: *** [__modpost] Error 1
Makefile:1493: recipe for target 'modules' failed
make: *** [modules] Error 2

[RESEND PATCH 2/2] auxdisplay: img-ascii-lcd: Fix module autoload

[Javier Martinez Canillas]

If the driver is built as a module, autoload won't work because the module
alias information is not filled. So user-space can't match the registered
device with the corresponding module.

Export the module alias information using the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro.

Before this patch:

$ modinfo drivers/auxdisplay/img-ascii-lcd.ko | grep alias
$

After this patch:

$ modinfo drivers/auxdisplay/img-ascii-lcd.ko | grep alias
alias:          of:N*T*Cmti,sead3-lcdC*
alias:          of:N*T*Cmti,sead3-lcd

This was also causing issues with 0-day builder when driver is built
into the kernel.

Great, glad that your version was picked since it seems these two patches
were never going to make it.

How about you try sending the 2nd patch to him as well since he seems
to be picking up auxdisplay changes?
