Add pd_size in the AUXDATA structure so that device drivers which require
platform_data size can pass along with AUXDATA.

It is really needed by device driver? Or is it because omap_device_build is
using platform_device_add_data that is doing a copy of the pdata and thus
require the size?

Yes, I have the same question.  What is the reason for needing the
platform data size?

Maybe platform_data_size will be a little bit more consistent?
