<linux/mod_devicetable.h> deprecation continues

[PATCH v1 0/3] <linux/mod_devicetable.h> deprecation continues

Posted by Uwe Kleine-König (The Capable Hub) 3 days, 4 hours ago

Hello,

this is a next step in the deprecation of <linux/mod_devicetable.h>.
scripts/mod/devicetable-offsets.c and scripts/mod/file2alias.c are the
only users of that header that use more than a few device-id structs. So
their number of lines actually grows when unfolding the needed includes
into them. Still it is a reduction in build dependencies.

I suggest to take this via kbuild during the merge window. Would be great to
cook in next for a while before.

Best regards
Uwe

  Move struct cpu_feature to <linux/cpufeature.h>
  devicetable-offsets: Include the needed device-id headers instead of
    the catch-all
  file2alias: Include the needed device-id headers instead of the
    catch-all
