Use i2c_driver->probe() and ->remove() instead. Who: Jean Delvare 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
