Convert each file at I2C subsystem, renaming them to .rst and adding to the driver-api book. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Acked-by: Wolfram Sang Acked-by: Alexandre Belloni Acked-by: Jonathan Cameron Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

docs: stop suggesting strlcpy

2019-06-20T20:08:49+00:00

Since strlcpy is deprecated, the documentation shouldn't suggest using it. This patch fixes the examples to use strscpy instead. It also uses sizeof instead of underlying constants as far as possible, to simplify future changes to the corresponding data structures.

docs: fix broken documentation links

2019-06-08T19:42:13+00:00

Documentation: remove __dev* attributes.

2013-01-03T23:57:16+00:00

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit from the kernel documentation. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand. Cc: Bill Pemberton Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: ohci-nxp: Rename symbols from pnx4008 to nxp

2012-03-13T21:27:28+00:00

Since this driver is compatible with several NXP devices, the driver was renamed accordingly. This patch also changes the respective symbol names. Signed-off-by: Roland Stigge Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

i2c: Add support for custom probe function

2010-08-11T16:20:56+00:00

The probe method used by i2c_new_probed_device() may not be suitable for all cases. Let the caller provide its own, optional probe function. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare Acked-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
