Subject: [PATCH] Input: apm-power - remove driver
Date: Mon,  9 Nov 2026 00:09:44 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109080944.3802916-1-dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com> (raw)

The apm-power input handler solely listens for EV_PWR KEY_SUSPEND
events to queue APM_USER_SUSPEND via legacy APM emulation. The only
in-tree platforms generating those events are legacy Sharp Zaurus ARM
machines (spitz/borzoi/akita and collie), none of which were converted
to Device Tree. Both mach-pxa board files and mach-sa1100 were marked
deprecated in v7.3 by commit cc7852314abd ("ARM: PXA: mark remaining
board files as deprecated") and commit 7d92e50ceacd ("ARM: mark
mach-sa1100 as deprecated"), and are queued for removal in v7.5. None
of the remaining ARM platforms or other APM_EMULATION targets
(MIPS_ALCHEMY, PMAC_APM_EMU, and SH_HP6XX) emit EV_PWR input events or
enable CONFIG_INPUT_APMPOWER, and arch/arm/configs/pxa_defconfig
already dropped CONFIG_PXA_SHARPSL at the same time, leaving its
CONFIG_INPUT_APMPOWER=m entry inert.

Normalizing dashes and underscores in scripts/modules-check.sh for v7.5
exposes a module name collision (apm_power) between
drivers/input/apm-power.ko and drivers/power/supply/apm_power.ko.
Remove this obsolete input bridge to resolve the collision rather than
renaming a module whose last target platforms are going away in the
same cycle.
