5d40d4fae6The only reason for the ssd130x-spi driver to have an spi_device_id table
is that the SPI core always reports an "spi:" MODALIAS, even when the SPI
device has been registered via a Device Tree Blob.
Without spi_device_id table information in the module's metadata, module
autoloading would not work because there won't be an alias that matches
the MODALIAS reported by the SPI core.
This spi_device_id table is not needed for device matching though, since
the of_device_id table is always used in this case. For this reason, the
struct spi_driver .id_table member is currently not set in the SPI driver.
Because the spi_device_id table is always required for module autoloading,
the SPI core checks during driver registration that both an of_device_id
table and a spi_device_id table are present and that they contain the same
entries for all the SPI devices.
Not setting the .id_table member in the driver then confuses the core and
leads to the following warning when the ssd130x-spi driver is registered:
[ 41.091198] SPI driver ssd130x-spi has no spi_device_id for sinowealth,sh1106
[ 41.098614] SPI driver ssd130x-spi has no spi_device_id for solomon,ssd1305
[ 41.105862] SPI driver ssd130x-spi has no spi_device_id for solomon,ssd1306
[ 41.113062] SPI driver ssd130x-spi has no spi_device_id for solomon,ssd1307
[ 41.120247] SPI driver ssd130x-spi has no spi_device_id for solomon,ssd1309
[ 41.127449] SPI driver ssd130x-spi has no spi_device_id for solomon,ssd1322
[ 41.134627] SPI driver ssd130x-spi has no spi_device_id for solomon,ssd1325
[ 41.141784] SPI driver ssd130x-spi has no spi_device_id for solomon,ssd1327
[ 41.149021] SPI driver ssd130x-spi has no spi_device_id for solomon,ssd1331
To prevent the warning, set the .id_table even though it's not necessary.
Since the check is done even for built-in drivers, drop the condition to
only define the ID table when the driver is built as a module. Finally,
rename the variable to use the "_spi_id" convention used for ID tables.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
