From: Bjorn Helgaas Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2006 22:04:00 +0000 (-0500) Subject: ACPI: make acpi_bus_register_driver() return success/failure, not device count X-Git-Tag: v2.6.18-rc1~1081^2~19^2~10^2~3 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9d9f749b316ac21cb59ad3e595cbce469b409e1a;p=linux-2.6 ACPI: make acpi_bus_register_driver() return success/failure, not device count acpi_bus_register_driver() should not return the number of devices claimed. We're not asking to find devices, we're making a driver available to devices, including hot-pluggable devices that may appear in the future. I audited all callers of acpi_bus_register_driver(), and except asus_acpi.c and sonypi.c (fixed in previous patches), all either ignore the return value or test only for failure (<0).
