From: Grant Likely Date: Tue, 4 Nov 2014 10:26:26 +0000 (+0000) Subject: of/platform: Move platform devices under /sys/devices/platform X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=43c0767e17ac70e494b6a381b3a20be6a1a75c70;p=linux-beck.git of/platform: Move platform devices under /sys/devices/platform Currently the devices created by drivers/of/platform.c get created at the root of /sys/devices. This goes against the typical pattern for sysfs where the top level /sys/devices structure contains categories of devices, and the structure of devices is placed below that. To fix this, make the code in drivers/of/platform.c follow the drivers/base/platform.c behaviour, and use &platform_bus as the default parent for all new platform_devices and amba_devices. This change has been discussed for a long time, but nobody has actually acted on it. Userspace code that expects to find devices under a fixed /sys/devices/... path will be affected. It isn't /supposed/ to do that, but if anyone complains then I'll add a default-off workaround option to put them back into the root.
