- Out-of-tree patches often add a board driver, which may use the
old device_d/driver_d naming. Especially with bisecting, this can
be a hassle
- We may split up some parts of struct device into a new
struct platform_device like Linux does and we don't want
to break out of tree patches twice.
Thus add the old names as aliases for now.
