Avoiding platform-specific callbacks in drivers?

2010-11-09 Thread Bill Gatliff
Guys: Let's say that on a given platform, I need to twiddle with a GPIO pin when a chip enters and exits suspend. One way to do that is to hack the driver itself; a slightly less-inelegant way is to add a function pointer in the platform data, and have the driver call back in its suspend() and r
