To me passing some third driver's dev_name in pdata seems pretty weird.. But then again maybe I just don't know how this is supposed to work.

This looks pretty weird to me too. The "/dev/ttyO1" thing doesn't look right. But I don't really know how this works either, because this is the BT/FM/GPS part of the wl12xx chip. And, to be honest, I don't know anything about it. I only know about the wifi part of it. :\

This is what the ti_st driver expects in the platform data structure. More precisely, in kim_probe():

	/* copying platform data */
	strncpy(kim_gdata->dev_name, pdata->dev_name,UART_DEV_NAME_LEN);
	kim_gdata->flow_cntrl = pdata->flow_cntrl;
	kim_gdata->baud_rate = pdata->baud_rate;
	pr_info("sysfs entries created\n");

So IMHO the patch is a valid fix. However, one more patch [1] is still required to get BT and WLAN working on the PandaBoard.

Thanks,
Mircea

So IMHO the patch is a valid fix. However, one more patch [1] is still required to get BT and WLAN working on the PandaBoard.

The patch looks alright to me.
Yes, the UART to which BT chip is connected (along with other technologies for which shared transport is required), the baud rate which the UART supports & also a flag so as to check whether it supports flow control - ideally is supposed to come from boot-loader, device tree sort of configuration - if not can be hard-coded in the relevant platform specific files like in this case.

This is picked up from ST as platform data as is read from the user-space daemon, because unfortunately none of these configurations can be done in kernel (the right way for TTY).

1 more patch or an addition to this patch to add the wl1271_device & the btwilink device is also required to get ST probe & BT probe. The btwilink driver is a platform device because UART devices don't have a probe mechanism unlike say usb, i2c..
