Subject: [PATCH 10/14] eeprom: move nvmem EEPROM drivers to drivers/nvmem/
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2026 10:46:43 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260729094647.111468-11-srini@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260729094647.111468-1-srini@kernel.org>
From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@oss.qualcomm.com>
For historical reasons EEPROM drivers have lived under
drivers/misc/eeprom/. Also for historical reasons changes to most of
them would go through the char-misc tree while some would be queued
through the I2C tree. Over the years some of them have also been
converted to using nvmem - the dedicated subsystem for non-volatile
memory - while get_maintainer.pl does not Cc the maintainer of nvmem on
patches changing them.
Move the EEPROM drivers using nvmem under drivers/nvmem/ for
consistency of the review process and path upstream.
