linux-stable.git/include/linux/gpio_mouse.h, branch master Linux kernel stable tree Input: gpio_mouse - kill off platform data 2017-10-20T00:08:37+00:00 Linus Walleij linus.walleij@linaro.org 2017-10-19T23:19:03+00:00 c5053e695d621f8a8a3992c5e93dd3be088fa267 This is not used much: git grep gpio_mouse_platform_data shows that absolutely nothing in the kernel defines this platform data. It could be argued that the driver should be deleted. But that is a bit harsh I think since it seems generally useful. So this patch starts a series which repurposes it to be used with hardware nodes from device tree or ACPI. This first patch simply localize the platform data header and allocates a dummy platform data. Yes: this patch leaves the driver in a pretty useless state, but since nothing is instantiating this driver, it doesn't make it more useless than it already is. Later patches makes use of the driver.

that absolutely nothing in the kernel defines this platform
data.

It could be argued that the driver should be deleted. But that
is a bit harsh I think since it seems generally useful. So
this patch starts a series which repurposes it to be used with
hardware nodes from device tree or ACPI.

This first patch simply localize the platform data header and
allocates a dummy platform data.

Yes: this patch leaves the driver in a pretty useless state,
but since nothing is instantiating this driver, it doesn't
make it more useless than it already is. Later patches makes
use of the driver.

 Input: add gpio-mouse driver 2007-07-10T04:35:17+00:00 Hans-Christian Egtvedt hcegtvedt@norway.atmel.com 2007-06-15T03:32:35+00:00 5f5655023f2814969b744c1e07494666587243aa Adds support for simulating a mouse using GPIO lines. The driver needs an appropriate platform device to be created by architecture code. The driver has been tested on AT32AP7000 microprocessor using the ATSTK1000 development board.
