On year ago Rob Herring wanted to remove the data pointer from the device_node structure[1]. The mvneta driver seemed to be the only one which used (abused ?) it. However, the proposal of Rob to remove this pointer from the driver introduced a regression, and I tested and fixed an alternative way, but it was never submitted as a proper patch. Now here it is: Instead of using the device_node structure ->data pointer, we store the BM private data as the driver data of the BM platform_device. The core mvneta code can retrieve it by doing a lookup on which platform_device corresponds to the BM device tree node using of_find_device_by_node(), and get its driver data [1]https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg445197.htmlSigned-off-by: Gregory CLEMENT <gregory.clement@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
