I suspect we are looking at different files, or different versions of the file.
I'm looking at drivers/mfd/ucb1400_core.c, which looks like this:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=drivers/mfd/ucb1400_core.c;hb=HEAD

The ucb1400_core is registered with driver_register.

I have grepped my tree and the only places I see "ucb12400_core" are in a couple
of arm board files and in my board file. Mine is commented out, and I definitely
still get the probe being called.

I added dump_stack() to the probe function.

This has nothing to do with the irq number that I'm passing (which is not 123
anyway). The ucb1400_core's dev->platform_data pointer is NULL.
