staging: comedi: dt9812: remove attaching by serial number
Currently this driver supports attaching 16 usb devices to 16 comedi devices. The user can pass the 32-bit serial number of the usb device when attaching to force a comedi device to attach to a specific usb device. It's also possible to attach a comedi device without having an attached usb device. When the device is first opened the comedi_device (*open) function in this driver then checks to see if a usb device has been attached. If so the subdevice information is updated based on the usb device and the comedi device is then operational. If a usb device is not attached the (*open) returns -ENODEV. To simplify converting this driver to the comedi (*auto_attach) mechanism, remove the attaching by serial number option. Modify the usb (*probe) so that the first available slot is used. If all the slots are used return -ENODEV. Modify the comedi (*attach) so that the first unused slot that has an attached usb device is used. If all the slots are used return -ENODEV. Since this ensures that the comedi device has an attached usb device, remove the (*open) function and fully initialize the subdevices during the (*attach). Fix the comedi (*detach) so that the slot is made available after detaching. Signed-off-by:H Hartley Sweeten <hsweeten@visionengravers.com> Cc: Ian Abbott <abbotti@mev.co.uk> Signed-off-by:
