Instead of allocating the smi_info structure, filling in the I/O info, and passing it to ipmi_si_add_smi(), just pass the I/O info in the io structure and let ipmi_si_add_smi() allocate the smi_info structure. This required redoing the way the remove functions for some device interfaces worked, a new function named ipmi_si_remove_by_dev() allows the device to be passed in and detected instead of using driver data, which couldn't be filled out easily othersize. After this the platform handling should be decoupled from the smi_info structure and that handling can be pulled out to its own files. Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
