Subject: [PULL REQUEST] devm usage cleanup #1, no resource check needed with
devm_ioremap_resource()
Linus,
Lately, I have been experimenting how to improve the devm interface to make
writing device drivers easier and less error prone while also getting rid of
its subtle issues. I think it has more potential but still needs work and
definately conistency, especiall in its usage.
The first thing I come up with is a low hanging fruit regarding
devm_ioremap_resouce(). This function already checks if the passed resource is
valid and gives an error message if not. So, we can remove similar checks from
the drivers and get rid of a bit of code and a number of inconsistent error
strings.
This series only removes the unneeded check iff devm_ioremap_resource follows
platform_get_resource directly. The previous version tried to shuffle code if
needed, too, what lead to an embarrasing bug. It turned out to me that
shuffling code for all cases found will make the automated script too complex,
so I am unsure if an automated cleanup is the proper tool for this case.
Removing the easy stuff seems worthwhile to me, though.
Despite various architectures and platform dependencies, I managed to compile
test 45 out of 57 modified files locally using heuristics and defconfigs.
Please pull if you think it is not too late for such a kind of cleanup.
Thanks,
Wolfram
