There are considerations to drop platform_driver_probe() as a concept that isn't relevant any more today. It comes with an added complexity that makes many users hold it wrong. (E.g. this driver should have marked the driver struct with __refdata to prevent the below mentioned false positive section mismatch warning.) This fixes a W=1 build warning: WARNING: modpost: drivers/tty/serial/pmac_zilog: section mismatch in reference: pmz_driver+0x8 (section: .data) -> pmz_detach (section: .exit.text) Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König <redacted> --- drivers/tty/serial/pmac_zilog.c | 9 +++++---- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-)
I gave it a quick spin in qemu, no issues. Tested-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> cheers
