Use devm_hwmon_device_register_with_groups instead of
the old-style manual attributes and hwmon device registration.

Also, unwind the attribute group macros for better code
readability.

Did the API for devm_regmap_init_vexpress_config change ?
If so, it might make sense to separate this out into a separate patch,
together with the API change (it is a logically different change).

Otherwise looks good.

One question - I seem to be unable to apply the patch. What is your baseline branch / repository ?

Thanks,

Yes, it's the gcc extension that allows compound literals to be used for
static structure members initialization. I like it, because it makes
them easier to understand (in my opinion, that is), but if you prefer
the classic approach, I'll unroll VEXPRESS_HWMON_ATTRS into:

static struct attribute vexpress_hwmon_attrs_volt = {
	&dev_attr_in1_label.attr,
	&sensor_dev_attr_in1_input.dev_attr.attr,
	NULL
};

And keep

static struct attribute_group vexpress_hwmon_group_volt = {
  	.is_visible = vexpress_hwmon_attr_is_visible,
	.attrs = vexpress_hwmon_attrs_volt,
};

I'm not sure I understand the question. The other patch from the series
I've copied you on
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/320577 "[PATCH
02/10] mfd: vexpress: Convert custom func API to regmap") changes

-       data->func = vexpress_config_func_get_by_dev(&pdev->dev);

into

+       data->reg = devm_regmap_init_vexpress_config(&pdev->dev);

Your ack there, by the way, will be really appreciated :-)

The whole series, based on v3.15-rc3 lives here:

Yes, would be great if you can do that.

The code above seems to change from

   	data->reg = devm_regmap_init_vexpress_config(&pdev->dev);
	if (!data->reg)
		return -ENODEV;

to

   	data->reg = devm_regmap_init_vexpress_config(&pdev->dev);
	if (IS_ERR(data->reg))
		return PTR_ERR(data->reg);

as part of this patch. This suggests that the return value from
devm_regmap_init_vexpress_config may have changed from NULL to 
ERR_PTR. Is my understanding wrong ?

No, you've got it right, but it's me making a mistake in patch splitting
- it is supposed to be a part of the first patch. Thanks for spotting
this!
