Platform devices are expected to use wrapper functions,
platform_{get,set}_drvdata() with platform_device as argument,
for getting and setting the driver data. dev_{get,set}_drvdata()
are using &plat_dev->dev.
For wrapper functions we can directly pass a struct platform_device.
dev_set_drvdata() is redundant and therefore removed. The driver core
clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on probe failure.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
