From 8a0cecffeb52363a57257bbbbd58f4c4537a75bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Brownell Date: Thu, 2 Apr 2009 16:57:06 -0700 Subject: gpio: gpio_{request,free}() now required (feature removal) We want to phase out the GPIO "autorequest" mechanism in gpiolib and require all callers to use gpio_request(). - Update feature-removal-schedule - Update the documentation now - Convert the relevant pr_warning() in gpiolib to a WARN() so folk using this mechanism get a noisy stack dump Some drivers and board init code will probably need to change. Implementations not using gpiolib will still be fine; they are already required to implement gpio_{request,free}() stubs.
