Lars-Peter Clausen c45c32ce47 std_init(): Drop check if pass in driver is non-NULL
std_init() checks if the pass in struct sr_dev_driver is non-NULL and
prints a error message and returns an error if it is NULL.

std_init() is exclusively called from driver init() callbacks for which the
core already checks if the struct sr_dev_driver is non-NULL before invoking
the callback. This means the check in std_init() will always evaluate to
false. So drop this check.

This also means that the prefix parameter that was used in the error
message is no longer needed and can be removed from the function signature.
Doing so will make the std_init() function signature identical to the
init() callback signature which will allow to directly use it as such.

README

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
README
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The sigrok project aims at creating a portable, cross-platform,
Free/Libre/Open-Source signal analysis software suite that supports various
device types (such as logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, multimeters, and more).

libsigrok is a shared library written in C which provides the basic API
for talking to hardware and reading/writing the acquired data into various
input/output file formats.


Status
------

libsigrok is in a usable state and has had official tarball releases.

While the API can change from release to release, this will always be
properly documented and reflected in the package version number and
in the shared library / libtool / .so-file version numbers.

However, there are _NO_ guarantees at all for stable APIs in git snapshots!
Distro packagers should only use released tarballs (no git snapshots).


Requirements
------------

Requirements for the C library:

 - git (only needed when building from git)
 - gcc (>= 4.0) or clang
 - make
 - autoconf >= 2.63 (only needed when building from git)

Device-specific issues
----------------------

Please check README.devices for some notes and hints about device- or
driver-specific issues to be aware of.


Firmware
--------

Some devices supported by libsigrok need a firmware to be uploaded before the
device can be used. See README.devices for details.
