    [PATCH] I2C: Separate non-i2c hwmon drivers from i2c-core (5/9) · 2d8672c5
    Jean Delvare authored
    Call the ISA chip drivers detection function directly instead of relying
    on i2c_detect. The net effect is that address lists won't be handled
    anymore, but they were mostly useless in the ISA case anyway (pc87360,
    smsc47m1, smsc47b397 had already dropped them).
    
    We don't need to handle multiple devices, all we may need is a way to
    force a given address instead of the original one (some drivers already
    do: sis5595, via686a, w83627hf), and, for drivers supporting multiple
    chips, a way to force one given kind. All this may be added later on
    demand, but I actually don't think there will be much demand.
