2008-10-16	device create: video: convert device_create_drvdata to device_create	Greg Kroah-Hartman	1	-6/+3
	Now that device_create() has been audited, rename things back to the original call to be sane. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-05-20	fbdev: fix race in device_create	Greg Kroah-Hartman	1	-3/+7
	There is a race from when a device is created with device_create() and then the drvdata is set with a call to dev_set_drvdata() in which a sysfs file could be open, yet the drvdata will be NULL, causing all sorts of bad things to happen. This patch fixes the problem by using the new function, device_create_drvdata().

2007-05-08	fbdev: display class	James Simmons	3	-0/+247
	Add the new display class. This is meant to unite the various solutions to display units ie acpi output device, auxdisplay and the defunct lcd class in the backlight directory.
