[PATCH] of/device: Obtain platform dev name and id from bus_id

From: Wojciech Baranowski
Date: Fri Nov 18 2011 - 10:30:40 EST


When adding new platform device, parse platform_device.dev.bus_id (used as
device name) to get platform_device.name and platform_device.id before
calling device_add. If bus_id cannot be split into name and id, fallback to
the old way.

Currently the name is being set to bus_id and id is being set to -1, even
when bus_id is in the form "some_name.some_number". This might lead to
problems with device-driver matching and index out of bounds error. It is
also not consistent with how the bus_id is generated from name and id.
