SubjectRe: [PATCH] power_supply: Add MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE for lp8727 charger

Well, Then I'll send a patch to just add terminating entry for
i2c_device_id table.

> The LP8727 includes a charger function with the micro/mini USB interface.
> Charging a battery and detecting which cable is inserted, this kind of job must be started at the beginning of system boot.
> So the lp8727 driver should be loaded before an user-space accesses this driver.
If this driver can be built as a module, people may load/unload the
module anytime ( and I think this is nothing to do with autoloading).

Regards,
Axel
