First, pass the PCI device reference as function parameter. Then the
setup function knows which stmmac_pci_dmi_data structure to use.
Finally, we are left with a setup function in stmmac_pci_info and can
convert the structure into a function pointer. By converting
stmmac_default_data to that type, we can make a setup function
mandatory, and probing becomes more regular.
I don't see any good reason for this patch. Besides that it will not
compile (as David noticed already).

Can we modify structures with less intrusion?
I'm pretty sure we can convert (if you wish, however I would leave it
for now, there is no issue with current approach) with as twice less
lines.
