ChangeSet 1.2164, 2004/11/19 09:12:35-08:00, khali@linux-fr.org [PATCH] I2C: Do not register useless smsc47m1 While verifying my stack of patches against what you sent to Linus last week, I noticed this one. Looks like I simply forgot to send it to you, as I cannot find any trace of it in the lm_sensors mailing-list archives. The patch prevents an smsc47m1 device from being registered when no monitoring function is actually active within the chip. See this ticket for background: http://secure.netroedge.com/~lm78/readticket.cgi?ticket=1801 This is certainly better to explicitely fail in this case than leave the user with an empty sysfs directory (except for alarms), which tends to make him/her think of a driver bug, which it isn't (what it really is is a BIOS brokenness).
