That's unfortunate.
This was indeed the case. The i2c-parport driver was for testing evaluation boards and other home-brew electronics, so had a small count of users, and the driver would always be loaded last anyway, so it was not a problem in practice. Still I agree with the change as it makes things cleaner and more flexible. -- Jean Delvare SUSE L3 Support -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
