From 3079b54aa9a0f0432b88a52e205cfa3486898330 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jean Delvare Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2019 10:48:44 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] eeprom: Warn that the driver is deprecated Deprecating the driver in Kconfig is one thing, but we also need to let the users themselves know. Log a warning each time a device is bound to the deprecated eeprom driver.
