Hi,

spi_imx_devtype_data has already been driver private data.  There is
really no need to make a copy in spi_imx_data.  Instead, a reference
pointer works perfectly fine.
You obviously overlooked, that the copy is done on purpose to keep
only the data that is actually needed and discard everything else
after initialisation.
I did not overlook that, as I removed __devinitdata there.
But now you keep the whole array of which only one entry is being
used instead of only the used entry.
