> Subject: [PATCH v2] uio/uio_pci_generic: remove unneeded pci_set_drvdata()
>
> The pci_get_drvdata() was moved during commit ef84928cff58
> ("uio/uio_pci_generic: use device-managed function equivalents").
>
> Storing a private object with pci_set_drvdata() doesn't make sense since that
> change, since there is no more pci_get_drvdata() call in the driver to retrieve the
> information.
>
> This change removes it.
>
> Fixes: ef84928cff58 ("io/uio_pci_generic: use device-managed function
> equivalents")
