Date: Thu, 2 Aug 2012 16:53:25 -0700 From: Vincent Palatin <vpalatin@...omium.org> To: rtc-linux@...glegroups.com Cc: Alessandro Zummo <a.zummo@...ertech.it>, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, Vincent Palatin <vpalatin@...omium.org> Subject: [PATCH] rtc: recycle id when unloading a rtc driver When calling rtc_device_unregister, we are not freeing the id used by the driver. So when doing a unload/load cycle for a RTC driver (e.g. rmmod rtc_cmos && modprobe rtc_cmos), its id is incremented by one. As a consequence, we no longer have neither an rtc0 driver nor a /proc/driver/rtc (as it only exists for the first driver).
