Subject: device_for_each_child() before device_add() doesn't work
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2009 17:54:40 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49E4BFD0.2020302@csr.com> (raw)
Calling device_for_each_child() on a device that has yet to be added
(with device_add()) used to work. UWB subsystem currently tries to do this.
Since "driver core: move klist_children into private structure"[1] this
no longer works (an oops occurs in device_for_each_chid()). Is it
something that ought to work? Or should the UWB subsystem be changed to
not do this?
