We should probably copy the platform_data like is done for non-OF platform devices. I'm sure there was some reason for it. It looks strange doing this in release. However, I'm inclined to not fix this and force users to move off of auxdata. That's intended to be a temporary migration path and there are only 54 instances of it that have platform_data. What device do you care about?
