| |
I'm willing to submit patches to remove pci_driver.owner and .name fields. pci_driver.driver.owner and .name will be used instead.
Patch 1 prepares the core pci code for future removal of the 2 fields, but actually do not remove them. As suggested by Al Viro, pci_driver.driver.owner will be set by pci_register_driver.
Patch 2 is an example of driver's update. There will be lots of patches like this.
Patch 3 is the final touch, after all pci_driver.name and pci_driver.owner are removed.
Any comments ? Feel free to correct my bad english.
thanks -- laurent
