[PATCH] i2c-parport: Make type parameter mandatory
This patch forces the user to specify what type of adapter is present when loading i2c-parport or i2c-parport-light. If none is specified, the driver init simply fails - instead of assuming adapter type 0. This alleviates the sometimes lengthy boot time delays which can be caused by accidentally building one of these into a kernel along with several i2c slave drivers that have lengthy probe routines (e.g. hwmon drivers). Kconfig and documentation updated accordingly. Signed-off-by: Mark M.

These devices use different pinout configurations, so you have to tell
|
||||
the driver what you have, using the type module parameter. There is no
|
||||
way to autodetect the devices. Support for different pinout configurations
|
||||
can be easily added when needed.
|
||||
|
||||
Earlier kernels defaulted to type=0 (Philips). But now, if the type
|
||||
parameter is missing, the driver will simply fail to initialize.

This driver is a replacement for (and was inspired by) an older

An adapter type parameter is now mandatory. Please read the file

Documentation/i2c/busses/i2c-parport for details.
