I don't think so - another argument:
Less code. As struct platform_device_id is a static array the space is
allocated anyway. So it doesn't make any difference if driver_data is
NULL or not. Later you just need to make an integer comparison instead
of a call to a strcmp(), if you have a switch/case and IMX*_UDC is an
enum, the compiler will warn you if you've missed an IMX variant.
