2009-12-06i2c: Drop probe, ignore and force module parametersJean Delvare1-0/+44
The legacy probe and force module parameters are obsolete now, the same can be achieved using the new_device sysfs interface, which is both more flexible and cheaper (it is implemented by i2c-core rather than replicated in every driver module.) The legacy ignore module parameters can be dropped as well. Ignoring can be done by instantiating a "dummy" device at the problematic address. This is the first step of a huge cleanup to i2c-core's i2c_detect function, i2c.h's I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD* macros, and all drivers that made use of them. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
