[PATCH v3 1/4] mfd: max8997: Fix platform device ids to avoid probe failure

From: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
Date: Mon Mar 23 2015 - 11:09:46 EST


Commit 6e3f62f0793e ("mfd: core: Fix platform-device id generation")
changed the way platform device ids are generated from mfd id base and
cell ids in mfd_add_device(). Unfortunately the change in question
breaks mfd drivers which are using mfd_add_devices() with mfd id base
equal to -1 and non-zero cell ids (used to distinguish cells with
the same name field). The result is that mfd core tries to register
platform devices with the same name which obviously fails and leads
to mfd device probe failure.

Relevant error messages in case of MAX8997 PMIC driver:

[ 0.921553] max8997: probe of 0-0066 failed with error -17

Change mfd_add_devices() mfd id base from -1 to PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO
to fix the issue.

This fix was tested on Exynos4210 Origen board which is using MAX8997
PMIC (it also fixes Exynos cpufreq support which was broken because
vdd_arm regulator was not available due to MAX8997 PMIC probe failure).
