Subject: [PATCH] gpio: msc313: remove unnecessary call to platform_set_drvdata()

This function call was found to be unnecessary as there is no equivalent
platform_get_drvdata() call to access the private data of the driver.
Also, the private data is defined in this driver, so there is no risk of
it being accessed outside of this driver file.

Not true.

I have to withdraw this, the patch is wrong.
NAK.

Sorry for the confusion (I have looked for the wrong pattern).

Hi,

The private data is "struct msc313_gpio *gpio". This private data is
"binded" to the gpio_chip via devm_gpiochip_add_data, right ?
Then it is retrieved via gpiochip_get_data(chip), right ?

No.

No.

The driver data is used in PM callbacks. See below.
