From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2011 22:38:33 +0000 (-0800) Subject: USB: Add helper macro for usb_driver boilerplate X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f3a6a4b6;p=linux-beck.git USB: Add helper macro for usb_driver boilerplate This patch introduces the module_usb_driver macro which is a convenience macro for USB driver modules similar to module_platform_driver. It is intended to be used by drivers which init/exit section does nothing but register/unregister the USB driver. By using this macro it is possible to eliminate a few lines of boilerplate code per USB driver. Based on work done by Lars-Peter Clausen for other busses (i2c and spi).
