platform_driver_probe — register driver for non-hotpluggable device
int platform_driver_probe ( | struct platform_driver * drv, |
int (*probe)
( struct platform_device *) ) ; |
drv
platform driver structure
probe
the driver probe routine, probably from an __init section
Use this instead of platform_driver_register
when you know the device
is not hotpluggable and has already been registered, and you want to
remove its run-once probe
infrastructure from memory after the driver
has bound to the device.
One typical use for this would be with drivers for controllers integrated into system-on-chip processors, where the controller devices have been configured as part of board setup.
Returns zero if the driver registered and bound to a device, else returns a negative error code and with the driver not registered.
