There is already a 'struct device *dev' pointer in the ICU data
structure. This pointer is set to "&pdev->dev" in the main probe
function.

Legacy: dev is the unique ICU device, the driver data is attached to it.
Now: dev is the 'host' ICU device that is the parent of two other
devices, ICU NSR controller and SEI NSR controller. The driver data is
also attached to this device.

So in both situations checking dev_get_drvdata(icu->dev) would return a
valid pointer.

Does this answer your question?

Kind regards,
