Subject: [PATCH 3.16 230/245] ptp: do not explicitly set drvdata in
 ptp_clock_register()

3.16.83-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@...il.com>

commit 882f312dc0751c973db26478f07f082c584d16aa upstream.

We do not need explicitly call dev_set_drvdata(), as it is done for us by
device_create().
