This patchset will merge the ibmebus and of_platform bus drivers by basing a lot of ibmebus functionality on of_platform code and adding the features specific to ibmebus on top of that.
I split the actual ibmebus rework into three patches (2/5-4/5) for easier readability. The kernel will compile during the intermediate states, and ibmebus will not crash, but not work either.
As a side-effect of patch 3/5, a problem with bus_id collisions in case of two devices sharing the same location code is resolved -- the bus_id is now determined differently.
[1/5] moves of_device allocation into of_device.[ch] [2/5] removes the old bus match/probe/remove functions [3/5] adds device creation and bus probing based on of_device [4/5] finally moves to of_device and of_platform_driver by changing ibmebus.h and matching the eHCA and eHEA drivers [5/5] just changes a nit in ibmebus_store_probe()
These patches should apply cleanly, in order, against 2.6.23-rc5 and against Linus' git. Please review and comment them, and queue them up for 2.6.24 if you think they're okay.
Thanks and regards, Joachim
