Re: platform_data in i2c device drivers

Hi Ben,

I think client->dev should be avoided if at-all possible. Many
drivers keep their own local copy of platform data or the pointer
to it in their driver private information.

I was thinking about that. But then again, I'd either have to copy the client->dev.platform_data pointer over to the private data, if it is non-null, or I would have to use some variation of

pdata = client->dev.platform_data ? client->dev.platform_data : priv_pd;

every time I want to access the configuration. Guess, that's not so bad though.

Thanks,
Frank
