2014-01-08Documentation/misc-devices/mei/mei-amt-version.c: remove unneeded call of ↵Paul Bolle
mei_deinit() Building mei-amt-version.o triggers a GCC warning: Documentation/misc-devices/mei/mei-amt-version.c: In function 'main': Documentation/misc-devices/mei/mei-amt-version.c:103:5: warning: 'acmd.fd' is used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] if (cl->fd != -1) ^ Documentation/misc-devices/mei/mei-amt-version.c:443:21: note: 'acmd.fd' was declared here struct amt_host_if acmd; ^ GCC is correct. See, the call chain that GCC detects must be main() amt_host_if_init() mei_init() mei_deinit() But when we enter mei_deinit() struct amt_host_if acmd is still unitialized. That makes the test for (effectively) amt_host_if->mei_cl->fd bogus. But it turns out that call of mei_deinit() isn't needed at all. All of the members of mei_cl will be set later in mei_init() and none will be used before they are set. So we can simply drop this call of mei_deinit().

2013-04-08mei: bus: Add device enabling and disabling APISamuel Ortiz
It should be left to the drivers to enable and disable the device on the MEI bus when e.g getting probed. For drivers to be able to safely call the enable and disable hooks, the mei_cl_ops must be set before it's probed and thus this should happen before registering the device on the MEI bus. Hence the mei_cl_add_device() prototype change.

2010-08-04Documentation: update broken web addresses.Justin P. Mattock
Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/* Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult, the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated. Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users. Signed-off-by: Justin P.

2009-10-04max6875: Discard obsolete detect methodJean Delvare
There is no point in implementing a detect callback for the MAX6875, as this device can't be detected. It was there solely to handle "force" module parameters to instantiate devices, but now we have a better sysfs interface that can do the same. So we can get rid of the ugly module parameters and the detect callback. This basically divides the binary module size by 2.
