[PATCH v2 0/3] tpm_tis: Clean up force module parameter

From: Jason Gunthorpe
Date: Tue Dec 01 2015 - 13:58:43 EST


Drive the force=1 flow through the driver core. There are two main reasons to do this:
1) To enable tpm_tis for OF environments requires a platform_device anyhow, so
the probe/release code needs to be re-used for that.
2) Recent changes in the core code break the assumption that a driver will be
'attached' to things created through platform_device_register_simple,
which causes the tpm core to blow up.

v2:
- Make sure we request the mem resource in tpm_tis to avoid double-loading
the driver
- Re-order the init sequence so that a forced platform device gets first crack at
loading, and excludes the other mechanisms via the above
- Checkpatch clean
- Gotos renamed

Martin, this should fix the double loading you noticed, please confirm. There
is a possibility the force path needs a bit more code to be compatible with
devm_ioremap_resource, I'm not sure, hoping not.

Jason Gunthorpe (3):
tpm_tis: Disable interrupt auto probing on a per-device basis
tpm_tis: Use devm_ioremap_resource
tpm_tis: Clean up the force=1 module parameter
