Eeek, no!

Stop and look at what you did here.  Why would you want to include 2
struct device pointers in a function, when they really point to the same
thing?  That makes no sense at all.

I appreciate general code cleanups, but please, get some experience in C
and how the kernel handles the driver model before trying to make
changes like this.  You can't just blindly make coding style changes and
expect them to be correct without that knowledge.

If you want to make coding style fixes, please practice on the
drivers/staging/ area.  The maintainer of that code is much more
forgiving and not grumpy when stuff like this happens...

thanks,
