From dtor_core@ameritech.net Tue Apr 26 00:45:53 2005 From: Dmitry Torokhov To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 5/5] make driver's name be const char * Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2005 02:34:05 -0500 Driver core: change driver's, bus's, class's and platform device's names to be const char * so one can use const char *drv_name = "asdfg"; when initializing structures. Also kill couple of whitespaces.
