Subject: [POWERPC] Convert therm_pm72.c to use the kthread API
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=39d183d87791cdfd9d430df299396c0fc688ea7a;p=linux-beck.git

[POWERPC] Convert therm_pm72.c to use the kthread API

This converts the therm_pm72.c driver to use the kthread API.  I
thought about making it use kthread_stop() instead of the `state'
variable and the `ctrl_complete' completion, but that isn't simple and
will require changing the way that `state' is used.
