[PATCH 18/23] drivers/bus: remove bus-specific driver references

David Marchand david.marchand at redhat.com
Wed Apr 29 13:44:51 CEST 2026


With the driver reference being set in the EAL before calling
bus->probe_device, buses now rely on the generic device.driver
field instead of maintaining their own bus-specific driver pointers.

This patch removes the use of bus-specific driver fields in favor
of the generic device.driver field, accessed through the RTE_BUS_DRIVER
macro in remove/cleanup paths.
