Hmm, not sure I follow...
struct omap_device already contains a struct platform_device, which in
turn contains a struct device, so to get an omap_device from a struct
device, there are two container of operaions: to_platform_device() and
to_omap_device()
from omap_device.h:
struct omap_device {
u32 magic;
struct platform_device pdev;
[...]
}
#define to_omap_device(x) container_of((x), struct omap_device, pdev)
from platform_device.h:
struct platform_device {
const char * name;
int id;
struct device dev;
[...]
}
#define to_platform_device(x) container_of((x), struct platform_device, dev)

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] OMAP: omap_device: add omap_device_is_valid()
The omap_device struct contains a 'struct platform_device'. Normally,
converting a platform_device pointer to an omap_device pointer
consists of simply doing a container_of(), as is done currently by the
to_omap_device() macro.
However, if this is attempted when using platform_device that has not
been created as part of the omap_device creation, the container_of()
will point to a memory location before the platform_device pointer
which will contain random data.
Therefore, we need a way to detect valid omap_device pointers. This
patch solves this by using the simple magic number approach.
