From 848ba0a2f20dc121a3ef5272a24641d2bd963d8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Guenter Roeck Date: Sun, 16 Oct 2016 17:20:43 -0700 Subject: hwmon: (core) Rename groups parameter in API to extra_groups The 'groups' parameter of hwmon_device_register_with_info() and devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info() is only necessary if extra non-standard attributes need to be provided. Rename the parameter to extra_groups and clarify the documentation.
