This would avoid the need to declare an array with just one entry. Thomas

Actually, it is named platform_driver_register() as you just showed me and that's the reason I didn't find it under platform_register_driver(). Thanks! Quentin

Using late initcalls for driver/device dependencies seems not right for me at this place. Best regards, Alexander

We'll have to change the error code, things we are apparently trying to avoid (see v2 patches' discussions). Thanks, Quentin

iio_channel_get_all returns -ENODEV when it cannot find either phandles and properties in the Device Tree or channels whose consumer_dev_name matches iio_hwmon in iio_map_list. The iio_map_list is filled in by iio drivers which might be probed after iio_hwmon. This makes sure iio_hwmon is probed after all iio drivers which provides channels to iio_hwmon are probed, be they present in the DT or using iio_map_list. This replaces module_platform_driver() by an explicit code variant which calls late_initcall() install of module_init(), meaning it probes after all the drivers using module_init() as their init.
