Subject: [PATCH] Fix autoloading of MacBook Pro backlight driver.
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2008 16:25:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1221607522.20234.84.camel@macbook.infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1221607406.20234.82.camel@macbook.infradead.org>
Use new MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(dmi, ...) facility. There's no need for
every driver to screw it up for themselves, when the alias can be
generated automatically.
