Subject: [PATCH 2/2] serial: sh-sci: Move uart_register_driver call to device probe
Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2017 17:26:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170324162634.8880-3-sjoerd.simons@collabora.co.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170324162634.8880-1-sjoerd.simons@collabora.co.uk>

uart_register_driver call binds the driver to a specific device
node through tty_register_driver call. This should typically
happen during device probe call.

In a multiplatform scenario, it is possible that multiple serial
drivers are part of the kernel. Currently the driver registration fails
if multiple serial drivers with overlapping major/minor numbers are
included.
