Subject: Re: [PATCH] power_supply: change the way how wm97xx-bat driver is registered

2008/10/29 Dmitry Baryshkov <dbaryshkov@...il.com>:
> Do register the driver from wm97xx_bat_set_pdata instead of module init.
> This has several positive outcome points:
> 1) This driver for wm97xx-battery is now registered on demand, thus allowing
>  other driver (e.g. tosa-battery) to claim the battery.
> 2) After dropping __init from wm97xx_bat_set_pdata(), the wm97xx_bat driver
>  can be correctly built as a module. Then one can request it and set the
>  battery data.
