In the near future, the driver core is going to not allow direct access to the driver_data pointer in struct device. Instead, the functions dev_get_drvdata() and dev_set_drvdata() should be used. These functions have been around since the beginning, so are backwards compatible with all older kernel versions. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
Applied to net-next-2.6, thanks.
