Ping. I'd like to send the fix to Linus during the merge-window.

 I wonder if we can do

depends on I2C=y

 here? If I understand it right, then we only build the ACPI_I2C if I2C
 is compiled into the kernel. That way the problem da3c6647 tried to
 solve doens't re-appear.

 We can later on relax this once ACPICA has been fixed. Thoughts?

Yes, this makes sense to me. I will rewrite the patch.

True, but only the I2C OpRegion parts needs to have I2C=y. Does it make
sense to name ACPI_I2C to ACPI_I2C_OPREGION (or something like that)
and only enable it when I2C=y? Then we would have ACPI I2C enumeration
still in place.

Hi Mika & Wolfram:
I have one concern about "depends on I2C=y". If distribution config
file selects I2C core as a module, the original code can enumerate I2C
slave devices from ACPI table. But now I2C_ACPI depends on I2C core
built in, the I2C module can't enumerate devices from ACPI table. This
maybe a regression for distribution?

I had the same idea yet my travel to Chicago interrupted thinking about
it further. Once I get rid of my jetlag, I'll have a closer look. Unless
you already came up with the perfect solution until then, of course ;)

[PATCH] I2C: Make I2C core able to be module when I2C_ACPI is selected.

2014-08-11 Thread Lan Tianyu
Commit da3c6647(I2C/ACPI: Clean up I2C ACPI code and Add CONFIG_I2C_ACPI
config) adds a new kernel config I2C_ACPI and make I2C core built in
when the config is selected. This is wrong because distributions
etc generally compile I2C as a module and the commit broken that.
This patch is to make I2C core able to be a module when I2C_ACPI is
selected. Original issue the commit da3c6647 tried to avoid will
be fixed in ACPICA and it's rarely triggered during unloading module.
