Subject: patch "iio: magnetometer: ak8974: remove incorrect __exit markups" added to staging-linus
Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2017 12:19:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <14901815747223@kroah.com> (raw)


This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    iio: magnetometer: ak8974: remove incorrect __exit markups

to my staging git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: iio: magnetometer: ak8974: remove incorrect __exit markups

Even if bus is not hot-pluggable, devices can be unbound from the
driver via sysfs, so we should not be using __exit annotations on
remove() methods. The only exception is drivers registered with
platform_driver_probe() which specifically disables sysfs bind/unbind
attributes.
