From b1ffbd0c80ed0c7bb7612d69f0c43049f3008315 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Teresa Remmet Date: Wed, 13 Feb 2019 09:34:25 +0100 Subject: drivers: of: Add function to enable and register a device by alias In some cases node names are not unique and passing the full path is really long. So make add a new device by passing the alias string possible.
