While your patch is "correct", it's not the nicest thing.  The way the
code looks today is to make it obvious we are passing a pointer to a
struct controller_priv() into anybuss_reset().  But with your change, it
looks like we are passing any random void pointer to it.

So I'd prefer the original code please.

Also, you forgot to cc: Sven on this patch, please always use the output
of scripts/get_maintainer.pl.

thanks,
