As somewhere else in this thread, I'd find this a lot more readable
as:
hx8357_init_fn init_fn;
Other than that, LGTM.

FWIW I was pretty skeptical about it to. Largely because the three touchs (typedef, variable initialization, use) spread things around a bit too much. Can we at least name the type to make it obvious that it is a function pointer? Something like hx8357_init_fn . Daniel.

This kind of typedef usage is frowned upon in the Linux coding style [0]
(per my understanding at least) and indeed in my opinion it makes harder
to grep.

This is what I mean, before it was clear what was stored in match->data.
But after you changes, what is returned by the device_get_match_data()
function is opaque and you need to look at the typedef hx8357_init to
figure that out.
No strong opinion though and I see other drivers doing the same (but no
other driver in drivers/video/backlight).
