with a custom bus_type
Hi Umang,
Thank you for the patch.

Greg, I don't know if you've followed the conversation in earlier mail
threads, so I'll try to summarize it here.
There are two layers involved: the VCHIQ layer, which has two clients
(audio and MMAL), and the MMAL layer, which has multiple clients
(camera, codec, ISP). The reason for this is that audio and mmal are
separate hardware, while camera, codec and ISP share some hardware
blocks.
The VCHIQ layer provides a mailbox API to its clients to communicate
with the firmware, and the MMAL layer provides another API implemented
on top of the VCHIQ layer. Neither APIs offer a way to discover devices
dynamically (that's not a feature implemented by the firmware). We've
decided that implementing two buses would be overkill, so Umang went for
a single vchiq_bus_type. The only value it provides is to stop abusing
platform_device. That's pretty much it.
Given the above explanation, do you still think the additional
complexity introduced by the vchiq bus type is worth it (it more or less
duplicates a small subset of the platform bus type implementation), and
are you fine with a single bus type, even if it doesn't exactly match
the firmware layers ?

Shouldn't you create a struct vchiq_device that wraps struct device, a
struct vchiq_driver that wraps struct device_driver, and a
module_vchiq_driver() macro ? It shouldn't be up to individual drivers
to deal with the plumbing.

Ah there we go :-) Move this structure to a header file that drivers can
include. I'd name it vchiq_device.h. The code below should go to
vchiq_device.c.
I would also move the dev field first.

Pass a struct device * for the first argument, you don't need a platform
device. I'd also name the function vchiq_register_device, and rename the
pdev parameter to parent.
