We probably want to pass it via the platform device - which probably means changing that interface. > How this hook is supposed to be changed? It's something which wasn't thought about since there were very few people wanting to use it, and further work needed to be done (as my first comment) to allow it to be used - which basically meant changing the initialisation paths to allow platform devices (now done). -- Russell King Linux kernel 2.6 ARM Linux - http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/ maintainer of: 2.6 Serial core - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
