[PATCH 0/3] platform/x86: dell-pc: Transition to faux device
Posted by Kurt Borja 8 months, 1 week ago
Hi all,

In commit 

	35fa2d88ca94 ("driver core: add a faux bus for use when a simple device/bus is needed")

the new faux bus was introduced. It was designed for cases where a
module needs a fake parent device.

When I saw this, dell-pc immediately came to mind so I wrote this small
patchset.

Compile tested only.

Thank you for your contribution, it has been applied to my local
review-ilpo-next branch. Note it will show up in the public
platform-drivers-x86/review-ilpo-next branch only once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.
