[PATCH] pc8736x_gpio: fix re-modprobe errors: fix/finish cdev-init
- Switch from register_chrdev() to (register|alloc)_chrdev_region(). - use a cdev. This was intended for original patchset, but was overlooked. We use a single cdev for all pins (minor device-numbers), as gleaned from cs5535_gpio, and in contrast to whats currently done in scx200_gpio (which I'll fix soon) Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
