But as the user is in staging, I want to ask if the use there is really a solution we would also accept outside of staging? Or is it a hack?

The similar OF API is exported for users, although amount of users and their locations are different. The AtomISP driver is not in the best shape, I agree, but for now any possible steps to make it better would be good steps in my opinion. Later we may see if we can do this piece of code differently (IIRC current way is probably the best taking into account legacy platforms support).

Btw, we may move all current exports from I2C ACPI to its own namespace, then we won't really care if it'e exported or not, only explicit consumers will use it.

Or is it a hack? staging drivers should be self-contained, do not accept code in the core kernel that only is used by staging drivers. So I would not recommend this be accepted at this point in time. Andy, work to get the driver out of staging first before doing stuff like this. thanks, greg k-h

Fair enough. > Andy, work to get the driver out of staging first before doing stuff > like this. Okay, I'll drop first one and patches related to it in the v2. It should bring us closer to the mentioned point. Thanks for clarification!

There is at least one user that will gain from the i2c_acpi_find_client_by_adev() being exported. Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> --- drivers/i2c/i2c-core-acpi.c | 3 ++- include/linux/i2c.h | 6 ++++++ 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
