      [PATCH] amiga: fix driver_register() return handling, remove zorro_module_init() · 33d8675e
      Bjorn Helgaas authored
      
      Remove the assumption that driver_register() returns the number of devices
      bound to the driver.  In fact, it returns zero for success or a negative
      error value.
      
      zorro_module_init() used the device count to automatically unregister and
      unload drivers that found no devices.  That might have worked at one time,
      but has been broken for some time because zorro_register_driver() returned
      either a negative error or a positive count (never zero).  So it could only
      unregister on failure, when it's not needed anyway.
      
      This functionality could be resurrected in individual drivers by counting
      devices in their .probe() methods.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
