    spi_register_driver not calling probe function

    Hi,
    I am registering a spi driver from within another driver (net_driver) and then I do so, by calling spi_register_driver, the corresponding probe function is not being called. Why would this be the case?

    I check the return status from the spi_register_driver call and it is 0. Isn't the spi driver's probe function supposed to get called?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    thanks,
    Steve
