The two macros FBTFT_REGISTER_DRIVER and FBTFT_REGISTER_SPI_DRIVER contain quite some duplication: Both define an spi driver and an of device table and the differences are quite subtle.
So create two new macros and use both twice.

You picked this patch into your staging-next branch, I guess from the original submission. Not sure how Mark wants to continue with the series from this thread, but at least my plan was that he will create an immutable branch on top of 5.17-rc2 (assuming 5.17-rc2 will contain "staging: fbtft: Fix error path in fbtft_driver_module_init()") with the remaining 4 patches in this series.
In a private mail you agreed to this procedure, but this didn't stop you taking this patch?! What is your plan here? The obvious (to me) options are:
- Delay this series until after the next merge window. - You back out this patch from staging-next and ack here for Mark to apply it to an immutable branch. - You keep this patch in staging-next and still ack here for Mark to apply it to an immutable branch. Then the patch would be included twice.
Best regards Uwe
