[PATCH] drivers: PMC MSP71xx GPIO char driver

Patch to add a GPIO char driver for the PMC-Sierra
MSP71xx devices.

This patch references some platform support files previously
submitted to the linux-mips@linux-mips.org list.

Thanks,
Marc

Could have type `bool'.

a) It uses StudlyCaps

b) the _t suffix is used for typedefs.

I suggest this be renamed to `struct blink_table'.

u32 is preferred.

Please convert all the code to sue standard whitespace conventions:

	for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {

and

	if (foo && bar)

Uneeded parens.

Ditto.

Please indent the body of the switch one tabstop less than this.

Please fit all the code into 80-cols.

Lots of dittos here.

schedule_timeout_interruptible), or ssleep().

This kernel thread will probably break suspend.  I suspect a
try_to_freeze() is needed.

Please give all the printks a facility level (KERN_INFO, etc)

I think msp_blink_running can just be removed - use kthread_should_stop().

And remove space before (

This probably obscures more than it reveals.  Better to open-code it.

It's more conventional to document functions in the .c file, using
kerneldoc format.

This should all be moved from .h into .c.  As it is, if two .c files
include this header, we'll get additional copies of this data.  And a
linker error.

Please don't use volatile.  Kernel standard I/O operations (inb, readl,
etc) handle all this.

[PATCH] drivers: PMC MSP71xx GPIO char driver

[Marc St-Jean]

[PATCH] drivers: PMC MSP71xx GPIO char driver

Patch to add a GPIO char driver for the PMC-Sierra
MSP71xx devices.

This patch references some platform support files previously
submitted to the linux-mips@linux-mips.org list.

Thanks,
Marc

Re-posting patch with recommended changes:
-Cleanup on style and formatting for comments, macros, etc.
-Moved some driver private data structures from .h to .c.
-Eliminated MSP_GPIO_BIT macro.
-Added call to new read_reg32 function to eliminate need
for use of volatile keyword.
-Made use of schedule_timeout_interruptible() call instead
of multiple calls.
-Added calls to kthread_should_stop and try_to_freeze().

Thanks for the feedback Andrew. I've implemented all your recommendations
other than the kernel thread handling, which I still have to look into.

The reason is likely because it's only called by msp_gpio_init so it was
considered part of the module code. I'll move the comment to only cover
msp_gpio_init/exit.

These exports are needed for other drivers compiled as modules can control
the GPIO pins through this driver.
