🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void hotplug_dock_devices (struct dock_station *ds , u32 event );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• ds — the dock station, periodt.
• event — either bus check or device check request. Those are the two vibes, no cap.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so listen: some devices on the dock station need to have drivers called to perform hotplug operations after a dock event has occurred. That is literally the whole assignment. 💅

hotplug_dock_devices() traverses the list of dock devices that have registered a hotplug handler, and calls the handler. It’s giving “walk the list, ring the handler, done.” ✨
