Dynamic modules may be loaded automatically on device initialization if
the device supports them. Dynamic modules implent probe() method to
determine whether they are supported by a particular deviced.
devcpufreq and cpuidle have been converted into dynamic modules
- standardisded on a single context argument
- removed Device.init() no longer necessary as initilize now
automatically gets propagated up the hierarchy. Renamed the existing
use of it to "initilize".
- related pylint cleanup.
- added caseless_string type. This behaves exactly like a string, except
this ignores case in comparisons. It does, however, preserve case. E.g.
>>> s = caseless_string('Test')
>>> s == 'test'
True
>>> print s
Test
- added list_of type generating function. This allows to dynamically
generate type-safe list types based on an existing type. E.g.
>>> list_of_bool = list_of(bool)
>>> list_of_bool(['foo', 0, 1, '', True])
[True, False, True, False, True]
- Update core_names Device Parameter to be of type caseless_string
