Avoid using these calls except with such hotplug-deficient drivers. struct platform_device *platform_device_alloc( - char *name, unsigned id); + const char *name, int id); You can use platform_device_alloc() to dynamically allocate a device, which you will then initialize with resources and platform_device_register(). A better solution is usually: struct platform_device *platform_device_register_simple( - char *name, unsigned id, - struct resource *res, unsigned nres); + const char *name, int id, + struct resource *res, unsigned int nres); You can use platform_device_register_simple() as a one-step call to allocate and register a device. |
