4 Subject: [PATCH] nvmem: layouts: store owner from modules with
5 nvmem_layout_driver_register()
7 Modules registering driver with nvmem_layout_driver_register() might
8 forget to set .owner field. The field is used by some of other kernel
9 parts for reference counting (try_module_get()), so it is expected that
12 Solve the problem by moving this task away from the drivers to the core
13 code, just like we did for platform_driver in
14 commit 9447057eaff8 ("platform_device: use a macro instead of
15 platform_driver_register").
