I literally have no idea what this is!

It's a reply to a diff of a reply to a patch AFAICS!

I think the best I can do is point you to:

you mean struct parport_driver ?

No, your current approach breaks heavily (eg. as soon ans something in
struct parport_driver changes). If you really need to extend it, do it
by nested structs (same like struct parport_driver nests struct
device_driver), and use the proper macros (eg. container_of(), etc)
for typecasting.

Keep in mind: kernel-internal structures are NOT fixed, they can change
anytime - this is a fundamental design decision.

If it's not needed, remove it. We don't like dead code.
