Subject: [PATCH 1/3] serial_core: Add helper for matching against linux,stdout-path
Date: Fri,  5 Oct 2012 18:12:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1349453581-1685-2-git-send-email-s.hauer@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1349453581-1685-1-git-send-email-s.hauer@pengutronix.de>

devicetrees may have a linux,stdout-path property in the chosen
node describing the console device. This adds a helper function
to match a device against this property so a driver can call
add_preferred_console for a matching device.
