Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] include: linux: siox: more for declaring siox drivers

From: Enrico Weigelt <[email protected]>

Add more helper macros for trivial driver init cases, similar to the
already existing module_platform_driver() or module_i2c_driver().

This helps to reduce driver init boilerplate.

I like the change. Just noticed that the Subject line is a bit strange
though. if "more for" is proper English then it's news to me. I'd write:

siox: add helper macro to simplify driver registration

I'd prefer /* on a separate line as documented in
Documentation/process/coding-style.rst (for non-net code).

Sorry I didn't notice these two things in the first round already.

Best regards

Good point, seems I've must have been totally under-coffeined, and
some words on nasty phone interrupts :o

I'll fix that.

Done.

Do we have a tool to check for that ? checkpatch doesn't seem to care
about it.

No problem, that's why we have multiple rounds :)
