From 5169b8a1659fef9cc093ed3d889a854945a18177 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Ellerman Date: Wed, 23 May 2007 18:08:13 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] [POWERPC] Update documentation for of_find_node_by_type() The documentation for of_find_node_by_type() incorrectly refers to the "name" parameter - it should be "type". Also the behaviour when from == NULL is not really documented, fix that.
