Hi Robert;

I am playing with AC97+WM9714 of TINY6410 board. I had made it to retrieve

WM8914's vendor id but  a BUG at probing WM97xx MFD device.

After digging, I thought the offending code is 'structure assignment' at line 74.

Both ac97->dev and adev->dev are objects of type 'struct device' rather than

'struct device *'.

Hi Lihua Yao,

Thanks for the report, I never triggered this error, but there is an bug indeed. As to your quick hack, would you mind submitting a patch ? Of course, you'll have to complete it to have device_add() and device_put() in the release routine, and add a parenthood to the adev->dev device.

Cheers.
