@ -122,15 +122,15 @@ None the less, there are some APIs to support such legacy drivers. 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.
