From 4555227211ae867d8f8ec9eb5182273f58b648c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wolfram Sang Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2014 13:46:21 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] i2c: add debug info when class instantiation was dropped We have a warning already when support for old-fashioned class based instantiation is about to be dropped somewhen soon from a driver. Let's have another one when it was actually dropped. This allows to remove the cruft a little earlier and still let users know what happened in the rare case they are missing devices after the change. However, there is enough interest to get rid of class based instantiation rather sooner than later because it improves boot up time.
