Couldn't you use the "new" probe_new() callback instead which will drop the i2c_device_id? Kieran was interested in such conversions IIRC.It's a bit unrelated to this patch, but I can add another patch to the series. While I have your attention, there's a question for you in the cover letter :-) Could you please have a look ?? This was the answer to that question. Unless I misunderstood.
My point is that this patch shouldn't be needed. I'd like if the I2C core could get the driver data from the i2c_device_id table instead of duplicating it in the of_device_id. This isn't possible today as i2c_match_id() doesn't have the fallback mechanism that OF matching has. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
