in [Kernel]

Next: [PATCH net-next 0/3] drivers/net/bfin_mac.c: Neatening
From: Grant Likely on 29 Jul 2010 20:00 Currently there are some drivers in tree which register both a platform_driver and an of_platform_driver with the same name. This is a temporary situation until all the relevant of_platform_drivers are converted to be normal platform_drivers. Until then, this patch gives all the of_platform_drivers an "of:" prefix to protect against bogus matches and namespace conflicts. --- drivers/of/platform.c | 16 ++++++++++++++++ 1 files changed, 16 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/of/platform.c b/drivers/of/platform.c index da10181..a6dbfd5 100644 --- a/drivers/of/platform.c +++ b/drivers/of/platform.c @@ -74,8 +74,22 @@ static void platform_driver_shutdown_shim(struct platform_device *pdev) */ int of_register_platform_driver(struct of_platform_driver *drv) { + char *of_name; + /* setup of_platform_driver to platform_driver adaptors */ drv->platform_driver.driver = drv->driver; + + /* Prefix the driver name with 'of:' to avoid namespace collisions + * and bogus matches.
