Hello,
this series superseeds my previous patch "[PATCH v1] mfd: Use named
initializers for arrays of i2c_device_data"
(https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260515095839.4005460-2-u.kleine-koenig@baylibre.com)
that Lee asked me to rebase and also the series "[PATCH v1 0/3] mfd:
Initialize spi_device_id arrays using member names"
(https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1783003256.git.u.kleine-koenig@baylibre.com).
The objective for this series is to prepare mfd for changing
of_device_id etc to make driver_data a union, see
https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1780048925.git.u.kleine-koenig@baylibre.com/
for the idea behind it.
This series is based on yesterday's next/master and it does the
restructuring not only for i2c and spi (as the two series mentioned
above), but for all *_device_id structures that I intend to modify with
a union that affect mfd. So (I hope) this is the only patch series
affecting mfd for this quest.
I don't care much about the last few patches unifying the coding style.
I think it's a good opportunity to do that, but if you don't like them,
just don't apply these.
Best regards
Uwe

The drivers explicitly set the .driver_data member of struct
platform_device_id to zero without relying on that value. Drop these
unused assignments
This patch doesn't modify the compiled arrays, only their representation
in source form benefits.

While being less compact, using named initializers allows to more easily
see which members of the structs are assigned which value without having
to lookup the declaration of the struct. And it's also more robust
against changes to the struct definition.
The mentioned robustness is relevant for a planned change to struct
platform_device_id that replaces .driver_data by an anonymous union.
This patch doesn't modify the compiled arrays, only their representation
in source form benefits.
Also drop a tailing comma after a list terminator to match the common
style for these device-id arrays.

The patches bring inconsistency (or still leave it) with the terminator style
in both I²C and ACPI ID tables. Can you revisit that?

I found a few inconstencies for of_device_id, but not for acpi and i2c.
I have a script for the acpi and i2c (and now also for the of) changes
and don't spot inconsistencys in the terminator style for acpi and i2c
devices apart from comments.
(I looked at the output of:
git grep -lE '(i2c|acpi)_device_id [a-z0-9_]*\[\]' drivers/mfd | xargs -r sed -rn '/(i2c|acpi)_device_id [a-zA-Z0-9_]*\[/,/^};/p' | grep -B1 ^\} | sort | uniq -c
)
Do you mean to unify the comments, too?
Best regards
Uwe
