When testing an i2c driver that is a fsi bus driver, I saw the following oops: kernel BUG at drivers/base/driver.c:153! Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] ARM [<8027cb1c>] (driver_register) from [<80344e88>] (fsi_driver_register+0x2c/0x38) [<80344e88>] (fsi_driver_register) from [<805f5ebc>] (fsi_i2c_driver_init+0x1c/0x24) [<805f5ebc>] (fsi_i2c_driver_init) from [<805d1f14>] (do_one_initcall+0xb4/0x170) [<805d1f14>] (do_one_initcall) from [<805d20f0>] (kernel_init_freeable+0x120/0x1dc) [<805d20f0>] (kernel_init_freeable) from [<8043f4a8>] (kernel_init+0x18/0x104) [<8043f4a8>] (kernel_init) from [<8000a5e8>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x2c) This is because the fsi bus had not been registered. This fix registers the bus with postcore_initcall instead, to ensure it is registered earlier on. When the fsi core is used as a module this should not be a problem as the fsi driver will depend on the fsi bus type symbol, and will therefore load the core before the driver.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
