[U-Boot] [PATCH v5 008/101] i2c: designware: Avoid using static data

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Mon Nov 25 04:09:18 UTC 2019


Drivers are not allowed to use static data since they may be used in SPL
where BSS is not available.

It is possible that driver model may provide support for numbering devices
in the future. But for now, move this to global_data.
