Subject: [114/152] gpio: Fix null pointer dereference while accessing rdc321x platform_data

2.6.36-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Florian Fainelli <florian@...nwrt.org>

commit fa6469cb5b2d16703464c344b943e2c025cb7858 upstream.

rdc321x-gpio currently fetches its driver specific data by using the
platform_device->platform_data pointer, this is wrong because the mfd
device which registers our platform_device has been added using
mfd_add_device() which sets the platform_device->driver_data pointer
instead.
