From u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de Wed Feb 17 12:38:14 2010 From: Uwe Kleine-König Date: Thu, 4 Feb 2010 20:56:49 +0100 Subject: platform-drivers: move probe to .devinit.text in arch/arm To: Greg KH Cc: Andrew Morton , Arnaud Patard , Ben Dooks , Dmitry Baryshkov , Eric Miao , Kristoffer Ericson , Liam Girdwood , Paul Sokolovsky , Richard Purdie , Russell King Message-ID: <1265313417-5568-1-git-send-email-u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de> From: Uwe Kleine-König A pointer to a probe callback is passed to the core via platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the .init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y) unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an oops as does a device being registered late. An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function from the struct platform_driver.
