Re: [rtc-linux] [PATCH v3 05/16] gpiolib: utilize new cdev_device_add helper function

Replace the open coded registration of the cdev and dev with the
new device_add_cdev() helper. The helper replaces a common pattern by
taking the proper reference against the parent device and adding both
the cdev and the device.

Please inform me if you plan to merge this into the device core
tree or similar, or whether I should apply it for like v4.13 after merging
the core patch or so.

Yours,
