driver core: Move driver_data back to struct device
Having to allocate memory as part of dev_set_drvdata() is a problem because that memory may never get freed if the device itself is not created. So move driver_data back to struct device. This is a partial revert of commit b4028437. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
