[PATCH v2 0/5] dax-device: Some cleanups

From: Uwe Kleine-König
Date: Fri Feb 05 2021 - 22:27:16 EST


Hello,

I didn't get any feedback for the (implicit) v1 of this series that
started with Message-Id: 20210127230124.109522-1-uwe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,
but I identified a few improvements myself:

- Use "dax-device" consistently as a prefix
- Instead of requiring a .remove callback, make it explicitly
optional. (Drop checking for .remove from former patch 1, introduce
new patch "Properly handle drivers without remove callback")
- The new patch about remove being optional allows to simplify one of
the two dax drivers which is implemented in patch 4
- Patch 5 got a bit smaller because we now have one driver less with a
remove callback.
- Added Andrew to To: as he merged dax drivers in the past.

Andrew: Assuming you consider these patches useful, would you please
care for merging them?

Best regards
Uwe
