I took a look at it today.
With these Atmel CPUs we have different behaviour of each IP block
depending on what CPU it is included in which is why I have added
all these _config blocks (I could have re-used a few).

So it is not that we see that for example at91sam9rl-lcdc
is used in many CPU's.
Adding the platform_id in this case resulted in extra code with no
added benefit - or at least no benefit I could see.
I had to maintain both a of_device_id table and a platform_device_id table,
so it also looked like a duplicate.

So unless I miss something then the original patch is the best
solution.
