Re: [PATCH 1/2] staging: ion: Add ion-physmem driver

[Paul Bolle]

This patch adds a mismatch between the Kconfig symbol (a bool) and the
code (which suggests it could be built modular too).

To make absolutely sure I'm reading this correctly: there's no way
ion_physmem.o can ever be part of a module, right?

(If I'm not reading this correctly you can stop reading here.)

If this file can only be built-in this include might not be needed.

MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE will always be preprocessed away for built-in code
(see include/linux/module.h).

For built-in only code THIS_MODULE will be, basically, always NULL. So,
I think try_module_get() will always return true.

Again, THIS_MODULE will be, basically, always NULL.

Ditto.

For built-in only code this is equivalent to, if I remember correctly,
having a small wrapper call
    platform_driver_register(&ion_physmem_driver);

and mark that wrapper with device_initcall().

These macros will always be effectively preprocessed away for built-in
only code.

(If you plan to make ION_PHYSMEM tristate, you should note that "GPL"
doesn't match the license stated in the comment at the top of this file,
see include/linux/module.h.)
