You can do a nasty type punning trick if the generic pdata is the first member of the platform data, otherwise the easiest thing is usually to provide a defualt pdata if the pdata is NULL. I'd expect that in a lot of cases the standard platform data would be the only platform data so for many drivers they wouldn't need to worry about extra data but perhaps MMC isn't like that, I've never really looked at the code. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
