I cannot foresee any sensible future use case for adding an entry without a data pointer as the whole driver is now heavily based on this data to handle so many variants. Also, the error checking did not exist before and the i2c match table is not introducing anything new in terms of .driver_data values. Thus I vote for not adding any error checking here. Otherwise looks good. Luca -- Luca Ceresoli, Bootlin Embedded Linux and Kernel engineering https://bootlin.com
