Subject: [PATCH] mtd: mtdpart: Don't create platform device that'll never
|
|
probe
|
|
|
|
These "nvmem-cells" platform devices never get probed because there's no
|
|
platform driver for it and it's never used anywhere else. So it's a
|
|
waste of memory. These devices also cause fw_devlink to block nvmem
|
|
consumers of "nvmem-cells" partition from probing because the supplier
|
|
device never probes.
|
|
|
|
So stop creating platform devices for nvmem-cells partitions to avoid
|
|
wasting memory and to avoid blocking probing of consumers.
