What about completly removing struct snd_card_es968 and using pnp_dev
directtly instead? sound/* is full of this overdesign and it's time
to get it follow kernel style a bit more..

That printk is useless, you get a useful message from modprobe on
an ENODEV return anyway.

Perhaps the task of code clean up should be done in separate track than
pnp api conversion task?

I'll make a new diff without useless printk line. Thank you.

Hello, John and other.
You've forgot to kfree(cfg) in the error path.
Best regards, Ruslan.
This patch is just like the last one minus the bogus prink.

Hello, Adam, Greg and other.
As I think in this section of kernel it's not necessarily to use
__devinit and __devexit.
Soundcards(and other devices) can't be HotPlug as I know.
And if we look at #define of this attributes, then we see that
it useless with not HotPlug devices.
180 #ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG
181 #define __devinit
182 #define __devinitdata
183 #define __devexit
184 #define __devexitdata
185 #else
186 #define __devinit __init
187 #define __devinitdata __initdata
188 #define __devexit __exit
189 #define __devexitdata __exitdata
190 #endif
And with changes from __init to __devinit and enabled CONFIG_HOTPLUG
we loose advantage of __init.
May be I've missed something?
Best regards, Ruslan.
Hmm.. I think you're right. I don't know of a hotplug isa sound card.
I've essentially made the changes by looking at how sound/isa/als100.c
was changed in 2.5.65.
http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/[email protected]?nav=index.html|ChangeSet@-2w
Since that change was accepted, I just assumed it was right without much
thought. I guess I'll have to make a patch for als100 to use __devinit
and __devexit.

Yes, I agree. We should be using init for these particular drivers. PnPBIOS
devices may be on docking stations and I'd like to leave them as __devinit but
for strictly isapnp devices such as these, init makes sense. I'll add this to
my tree.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Thanks for submitting this patch. I'll look over it and add it to my tree.
Please note that the following ALSA drivers have now been converted.
ALS100
AZT2320
SB16 and AWE PnP
es968
Patches for these drivers and others will be available soon.
Thanks,
Adam
