2006-01-05	[PATCH] I2C: Remove .owner setting from i2c_driver as it's no longer needed	Greg Kroah-Hartman	1	-1/+0
	Now that i2c_add_driver() doesn't need the module owner to be set by hand, we can delete it from the drivers. This patch catches all of the drivers that I found in the current tree (if a driver sets the .owner by hand, it's not a problem, just not needed.)

2006-01-05	[PATCH] i2c: Drop i2c_driver.{owner,name}, 10 of 11	Jean Delvare	1	-2/+4
	We should use the i2c_driver.driver's .name and .owner fields instead of the i2c_driver's ones. This patch updates the drivers for arm arch. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> CC: Laurent Riffard <laurent.riffard@free.fr> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-01-05	[PATCH] i2c: Rework client usage count, 2 of 3	Jean Delvare	1	-1/+0
	Make I2C_CLIENT_ALLOW_USE the default for all i2c clients. It doesn't hurt if the usage count is actually never used for any given driver, and allows for nice code simplifications in i2c-core. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-01-05	[PATCH] i2c: Drop i2c_driver.flags, 2 of 3	Jean Delvare	1	-1/+0
	Just about every i2c chip driver sets the I2C_DF_NOTIFY flag, so we can simply make it the default and drop the flag. If any driver really doesn't want to be notified when i2c adapters are added, that driver can simply omit to set .attach_adapter. This approach is also more robust as it prevents accidental NULL pointer dereferences. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-11-13	[ARM] 3160/1: SharpSL: Add driver for Akita specific GPIOs	Richard Purdie	1	-0/+223
	Patch from Richard Purdie Add a driver for the extra GPIOs found on the Sharp SL-C1000 (Akita). These GPIOs are found on a Maxim MAX7310 I2C i/o expander chip. A generic GPIO driver for the MAX7310 was attempted but this mini driver is a much simpler and much more effective solution avoiding several issues and complexity the generic driver had (as discussed on LKML). The platform device is required so the device parent can be set correctly which ensures the device is one of the last to suspend and first to resume. Whilst the i2c suspend/resume calls can be influenced, nothing guarantees this is easlier/later than the subsystems the gpios are used on which are all independent of i2c (sound, irda, video/backlight etc.).
