2016-02-07drivers/misc: make arm-charlcd.c explicitly non-modularPaul Gortmaker
The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is: drivers/misc/Kconfig:config ARM_CHARLCD drivers/misc/Kconfig: bool "ARM Ltd. Character LCD Driver" ...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone. Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only. We explicitly disallow a driver unbind, since that doesn't have a sensible use case anyway, and this driver did not have a ".remove" function coded for non-modular drivers either. Since module_platform_driver() uses the same init level priority as builtin_platform_driver() the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit. We don't replace module.h with init.h since the file already has that. We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information is already contained at the top of the file in the comments.

2014-10-20misc: drop owner assignment from platform_driversWolfram Sang
A platform_driver does not need to set an owner, it will be populated by the driver core. Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang <wsa@the-dreams.de>

2013-05-16misc: arm-charlcd: remove unnecessary platform_set_drvdata()Jingoo Han
The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on probe failure, since commit 0998d0631001288a5974afc0b2a5f568bcdecb4d (device-core: Ensure drvdata = NULL when no driver is bound). Thus, it is not needed to manually clear the device driver data to NULL.

2010-07-26ARM: 6214/2: driver for the character LCD found in ARM refdesignsLinus Walleij
This adds a driver for the character LCD found on the ARM Versatile and RealView Platform Baseboards. It doesn't do very much more than display the text "ARM Linux" on the first line and the linux banner on the second line, but that's still useful.
