Nearly all drivers need driver private data.

That's ok in my book given that this doesn't complicate the lowlevel drivers and that hiding details considerably better doesn't work anyhow (see the drivers that need internal.h in your patch). For me the single allocation issue is only an added bonus. The relevant advantage of my approach is that the code is easier and (probably) more efficient.
