Subject: Re: [PATCH] twl-core: fix oops while calling twl_i2c_* for unbound driver
Date: Wed, 09 Nov 2011 04:24:04 +0400	[thread overview]

Hi,

this is still unfixed. twl_i2c_{read,write} are exported and can be 
called before driver initialization so we have to check it before 
dereferencing twl_map.

Regards, Ilya.
