bsr: convert bsr_class to use dev_groups

2013-07-24T22:39:04+00:00

The dev_attrs field of struct class is going away soon, dev_groups
should be used instead.  This converts the bsr bsr_class code to use
the correct field.

powerpc/BSR: cleanup the error path of bsr_init

2012-07-17T17:27:38+00:00

class_create if succeeded returns a pointer to the struct class,
and if it fails, it returns a value enclosed by the pointer, which
can be read by using PTR_ERR.

Handle the error and return it.

result is for error checking of the alloc_chrdev_region, instead
ret can be used, and also if the alloc_chrdev_region fail,
we are still returning -ENODEV, use ret and the error path will
take care of returning of the ret.

treewide: Convert uses of struct resource to resource_size(ptr)

2011-06-10T12:55:36+00:00

Several fixes as well where the +1 was missing.

Done via coccinelle scripts like:

@@
struct resource *ptr;
@@

- ptr->end - ptr->start + 1
+ resource_size(ptr)

and some grep and typing.

Mostly uncompiled, no cross-compilers.

powerpc/pseries/bsr: Remove redundant initialization of bsr dev_t declaration.

2011-05-04T06:02:40+00:00

Remove the unnecessary initialization of "dev_t bsr_dev" since it's
subsequently used in an "alloc_chrdev_region()" call which uses that
variable in an output-only fashion.
