it looks ok, but I have several questions: 1. why should we bind this to platform_device, what if the gpio device is not actually a "platform_device", say, a I2C device, a SPI device or even a USB device?
2. I still doubt the benefit of using of a structure for a gpio, isn't a gpio number not enough? 3. If one is going to use a GPIO, he has to initialize a "struct gpio" before that, how is he suppose to know the value for "gpio->gpio_dev"? 4. how can we optimize to a direct register access instruction (e.g. to GPDR in PXA) for bit-banging operation (pardon me, I don't exactly remember the name for such operation, maybe bit-banging) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
