Just to clarify: I don't want to take the patch for a reason, not just
because of my mood today. Once the patch comes in combination with another
patch (or a plan) that actually makes use of the wrapper function, then
I'd happily apply/ack it.

This is the same story as global checkpatch.pl fixes: they are more harm
than good, and without the actual use of the dev_get_platdata(), the patch
falls into "global checkpatch.pl fixes" category.

Thanks,

Anton
