Subject: feature-removal-schedule.txt for some I2C functions
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2009 10:26:17 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090312102617.3235a35b@pedra.chehab.org> (raw)
Hi Jean,
On your entry at Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt:
What: i2c_attach_client(), i2c_detach_client(), i2c_driver->detach_client()
When: 2.6.29 (ideally) or 2.6.30 (more likely)
Why: Deprecated by the new (standard) device driver binding model. Use
i2c_driver->probe() and ->remove() instead.
Who: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
You forgot to add a check entry, like:
Check: i2c_attach_client i2c_detach_client i2c_driver->detach_client
The check entry is used by checkpatch.pl to warn about the usage of a legacy function.
Please fix it, since me and others rely on this tool to discover about the
usage of legacy functions.
Cheers,
Mauro
