[PATCH v4 0/4] fujitsu_init() cleanup
From: MichaÅ KÄpieÅ
Date: Fri Mar 10 2017 - 05:51:00 EST
These patches should make fujitsu_init() a bit more palatable. No
changes are made to platform device code yet, for clarity these will be
posted in a separate series after this one gets applied.
Changes from v3:
- Do not use KBUILD_MODNAME as backlight device name as it breaks
userspace interface ("fujitsu-laptop" vs. "fujitsu_laptop").
Changes from v2:
- Patch 2/4 from v2 did not work as expected and was thus replaced
with a rebased version of patch 3/4 from v1.
- Added a check in patch 3/4 to prevent a NULL dereference when
ACPI device FUJ02B1 is not present and ACPI device FUJ02E3 is.
Changes from v1:
- Rebase on top of reworked Alan Jenkins' cleanup patch series.
- Drop patch 1/4 from v1 as it has already been applied in reworked
Alan Jenkins' cleanup patch series.
- Patch 3/4 from v1 has been replaced with a completely different one
(patch 2/4). It needs to be tested on a relevant machine as it is
based purely on a dump of a DSDT table (further details can be found
in the patch itself).
- Patch 3/4 in v2 is a rebased version of patch 8/10 from the reworked
Alan Jenkins' cleanup patch series. Patch 2/4 from v2 (the one
mentioned in the previous bullet point) ensures this one can be
safely applied without causing a NULL dereference under any
circumstances.
