| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that TUNER_SET_TYPE_ADDR is gone from the tree, the older code kicks in and tries to use TUNER_SET_TYPE, which went away a long time ago. This patch removes all of this logic, as it should not be needed anymore now, and by doing so, fixes the build. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

This used to work fine, but now oopses. This patch fixes the oops and makes the code behave like it used to.

Platform drivers are great for embedded platforms because we can separate driver configuration from the actual driver. So base addresses, interrupts and other configuration can be kept with the processor or board code, and the platform driver can be reused by many different platforms. For early devices we have nothing today. For instance, to configure early timers and early serial ports we cannot use platform devices. This because the setup order during boot. Timers are needed before the platform driver core code is available. The same goes for early printk support. Early in this case means before initcalls. These early drivers today have their configuration either hard coded or they receive it using some special configuration method. This is working quite well, but if we want to support both regular kernel modules and early devices then we need to have two ways of configuring the same driver. A single way would be better. The early platform driver patch is basically a set of functions that allow drivers to register themselves and architecture code to locate them and probe. Registration happens through early_param(). The time for the probe is decided by the architecture code. See Documentation/driver-model/platform.txt for more details.

If a instance of bus_type doesn't have .match method, all .probe of drivers in the bus should be called, or else the .probe have not a chance to be called.
