Please, instead of adding a function to insert/remove an I2C driver on every
place, put them into a common place.

I would actually very much prefer if you could reuse the same code that
are already at the media subsystem (see v4l2_i2c_new_subdev_board &
friends at drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-common.c), eventually making it
more generic.

Btw, as we want to use the media controller also for DVB, we'll end
by needing to use a call similar to v4l2_device_register_subdev().
So, having this code all on just one place will make easier for us to
go to this next step.

I am just learning and finding out best practices to use I2C drivers. That was one implementation solution and IMHO not so bad even. Sure those 2 functions could be replaced some more common at some phase, but currently, when there is only few drivers, I don't see need for common implementation. Let it happen when best practices are clear. And I really wonder why there is no such general implementation provided by I2C framework?

If you look how I have improved that in a long ran; 1st implementation is in em28xx driver, 2nd test was dd-bridge driver, then this anysee and eventually there is af9035 (which is almost same than this anysee).

Please don't use dvb_attach() for those converted modules. The
dvb_attach() is a very dirty hack that was created as an alternative
to provide an abstraction similar to the one that the I2C core already
provides. See how V4L calls the subdev callbacks at
include/media/v4l2-subdev.h.

You looked it wrong, it is dvb_pll_attach. tda18212 attach is replaced here with I2C driver. It is tda18212 which is converted here to I2C driver, whilst dvb-pll leaves old.


One of the big disadvantages of the dvb_attach() is that it allows just
_one_ entry point function on a sub-device. This only works for very
simple demods that don't provide, for example, hardware filtering.

+                       }

That patch has nothing wrong as I explained :)
It could be improved by implementing general I2C sub-driver loading functions, but these driver specific implementations are just fine until more common solution is developed.
