2009-10-11headers: remove sched.h from interrupt.hAlexey Dobriyan
After m68k's task_thread_info() doesn't refer to current, it's possible to remove sched.h from interrupt.h and not break m68k! Many thanks to Heiko Carstens for allowing this. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>
2009-10-04max6875: Discard obsolete detect methodJean Delvare
There is no point in implementing a detect callback for the MAX6875, as this device can't be detected. It was there solely to handle "force" module parameters to instantiate devices, but now we have a better sysfs interface that can do the same. So we can get rid of the ugly module parameters and the detect callback. This basically divides the binary module size by 2.

2009-07-29eeprom/at25: bugfix "not ready" timeout after writeSebastian Heutling
Under certain circumstances msleep(1) within the loop, which waits for the EEPROM to be finished, might take longer than the timeout. On the next loop the status register might now return to be ready and therefore the loop finishes. The following check now tests if a timeout occurred and if so returns an error although the device reported it was ready. This fix replaces testing the occurrence of the timeout by testing the "not ready" bit in the status register.
