Subject: [PATCH] gpiolib: move legacy interface into linux/gpio/legacy.h
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 17:45:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260428154522.2861492-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
Split the old contents from gpio.h for clarity. Ideally any driver
that still includes linux/gpio.h can now be ported over to use
either linux/gpio/legacy.h or linux/gpio/consumer.h, with the
original file getting removed once that is complete.
No functional changes intended for now.
