I am not sure if I am missing something, but it appears that pdev will
always be NULL here as it is a local uninitialised variable.

Not sure I see the point in the above function. Why not declare the
gpmc_device_data struct as static in the file and access it directly
instead of passing it in omap_gpmc_init(). The postcore_init can then
call omap_gpmc_init() directly.

Shouldn't the post_initcall be added in patch #4, when the driver is
created?

Cheers
Jon
