From e46980a10a76ec3282dd6832c1974b880acd23d3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Samuel Ortiz Date: Tue, 9 Apr 2013 01:51:38 +0300 Subject: mei: bus: Add device enabling and disabling API It should be left to the drivers to enable and disable the device on the MEI bus when e.g getting probed. For drivers to be able to safely call the enable and disable hooks, the mei_cl_ops must be set before it's probed and thus this should happen before registering the device on the MEI bus. Hence the mei_cl_add_device() prototype change.
