    hwmon: (ams) Convert to a new-style i2c driver · 810ad7b6
    Jean Delvare authored
    The legacy i2c binding model is phasing out, so the ams driver needs
    to be converted to a new-style i2c driver. Here is a naive approach of
    this conversion. Basically it is moving the i2c device creation from
    the ams driver to the i2c-powermac driver. This should work, but I
    suspect we could come up with something cleaner by declaring the i2c
    device as part of the platform setup. This could be done later by
    someone more familiar with openfirmware-based platforms than I am
    myself.
    
    One nice thing brought by this conversion is that the ams driver
    should be loaded automatically on systems where is is needed (at
    least when the I2C interface to the chip is used) providing
    coldplug-aware user-space environment.
