Hi Rob,

I've Addded Jamie on Cc here as he was interested in the possibility of
adding platform_device_id tables. Hopefully it'll be easy to discuss
{of,platform}_id_tables in one thread.

As Jamie pointed out to me the existence of platform_device_id tables,
I took a look around and noticed that of_device_id tables also seem to
provide support for driver-specific parameters (I saw an example of
usage in arch/sparc/kernel/pci_schizo.c).

I've had a go at getting {of,platform}_device_id tables to provide the
PMU type, so they can be used similarly (the macros make entries look
identical apart from the {plat,of} prefix).

I don't have any entries currently for the platform_device_id table,
but it'd be useful for system pmus, if we were to add an L2 Cache
controller PMU driver, it might have a binding like:

> PLAT_MATCH("arm,pl310-pmu", ARM_PMU_TYPE_L2CC),

How does the following series look to you? The first 2 patches are the
ones I mentioned before, unchanged (apart from additional acks).

Mark.
