[PATCH v5 05/16] gpiolib: utilize new cdev_device_add helper function

Logan Gunthorpe logang at deltatee.com
Fri Mar 17 11:48:12 PDT 2017


Replace the open coded registration of the cdev and dev with the
new device_add_cdev() helper. The helper replaces a common pattern by
taking the proper reference against the parent device and adding both
the cdev and the device.
