From: Stefan Richter Date: Sat, 27 Aug 2011 16:53:03 +0000 (+0200) Subject: firewire: move fw_device reference counting from drivers to core X-Git-Tag: v3.4-rc1~127^2~25 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=210762268466634ddbfaddb48fdf5181ce4b5f2d;p=pandora-kernel.git firewire: move fw_device reference counting from drivers to core fw_unit device drivers invariably need to talk to the fw_unit's parent (an fw_device) and grandparent (an fw_card). firewire-core already maintains an fw_card reference for the entire lifetime of an fw_device. Likewise, let firewire-core maintain an fw_device reference for the entire lifetime of an fw_unit so that fw_unit drivers don't have to. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
