Subject: Driver core: Remove unneeded get_{device,driver}() calls.
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.25-rc1~1066^2
X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0c98b19fe571ede1f14bd95b855bcbe2cca99bcf;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

Driver core: Remove unneeded get_{device,driver}() calls.

Driver core: Remove unneeded get_{device,driver}() calls.

Code trying to add/remove attributes must hold a reference to
the device resp. driver anyway, so let's remove those reference
count games.
