From f375ac5f197d32aeffe5436e5864525cc14ce44a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: H Hartley Sweeten Date: Tue, 9 Apr 2013 16:05:54 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] staging: comedi: drivers: introduce comedi_request_region() Introduce a helper function to handle the request_region() for legacy comedi drivers. As pointed out by Ian Abbott, legacy devices are configured manually with the "comedi_config" program. The error messages are useful diagnostics when trying to attach to these boards. Providing a helper function allows consolidating the error messages in the drivers and providing a consistent format for the errors. This helper also sets the dev->iobase automatically for the driver if the request_region() is successful.
