From: Stephen Warren Date: Tue, 17 Apr 2012 18:43:33 +0000 (-0600) Subject: i2c: implement i2c_verify_adapter X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~3680^2~2744^2~8 X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=643dd09eb27b40ced671564edbe2640935fe37c2;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git i2c: implement i2c_verify_adapter This converts a struct device * to a struct i2c_adapter * while verifying that the device really is an I2C adapter. Just like i2c_verify_client.
