With commit 24f4153 ("AP_HAL_Linux: RCOutput_PCA9685: group writes") a
log was introduced when we can't get the bus semaphore. However since we
are calling the non blocking method, failing there is not that unlikely
if the bus is shared. Return back to the previous behavior of not
logging.
The PSTR is already define as a NOP for all supported platforms. It's
only needed for AVR so here we remove all the uses throughout the
codebase.
This was automated with a simple python script so it also converts
places which spans to multiple lines, removing the matching parentheses.
AVR-specific places were not changed.
The switching between different AP_HAL was happening by giving different
definitions of AP_HAL_BOARD_DRIVER, and the programs would use it to
instantiate.
A program or library code would have to explicitly include (and depend)
on the concrete implementation of the HAL, even when using it only via
interface.
The proposed change move this dependency to be link time. There is a
AP_HAL::get_HAL() function that is used by the client code. Each
implementation of HAL provides its own definition of this function,
returning the appropriate concrete instance.
Since this replaces the job of AP_HAL_BOARD_DRIVER, the definition was
removed.
The static variables for PX4 and VRBRAIN were named differently to avoid
shadowing the extern symbol 'hal'.
Fix warning and use htole16 instead of trying to implement it.
The current code does nothing on little endian platforms.
Moreover, the status variable was unused.
