My quick idea is we go with these steps:
1. refactor struct dfl_feature_platform_data then replace all dev/pdev
   arguments with pdata when necessary.
2. factor out fdata from pdata, add fdata helpers.
3. massive pdata->fdata replacement.
4. delete all unused pdata helpers.

Please check if it is possible.
