2006-07-03	[PATCH] make more file_operation structs static	Arjan van de Ven	1	-1/+1
	Mark the static struct file_operations in drivers/char as const. Making them const prevents accidental bugs, and moves them to the .rodata section so that they no longer do any false sharing; in addition with the proper debug option they are then protected against corruption..

2006-04-20	[PATCH] cs5535_gpio.c: call cdev_del() during module_exit to unmap kobject references and other cleanups	Thayumanavar Sachithanantham	1	-2/+3
	During module unloading, cdev_del() must be called to unmap cdev related kobject references and other cleanups(such as inode->i_cdev being set to NULL) which prevents the OOPS upon subsequent loading, usage and unloading of modules(as seen in the mail thread http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=114533640609018&w=2). Also, remove unneeded test of gpio_base. Signed-off-by: Thayumanavar Sachithanantham <thayumk@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-01-10	[PATCH] i386: GPIO driver for AMD CS5535/CS5536	Ben Gardner	1	-0/+250
	A simple driver for the CS5535 and CS5536 that allows a user-space program to manipulate GPIO pins. The CS5535/CS5536 chips are Geode processor companion devices.
