You guys are totally right.

What if I clone the original saa7113_init table into a new one, and make
the driver use the new one if the calling driver sets platform_data.

Something like this?

        switch (state->ident) {
        case V4L2_IDENT_SAA7111:
        case V4L2_IDENT_SAA7111A:
                saa711x_writeregs(sd, saa7111_init);
                break;
        case V4L2_IDENT_GM7113C:
        case V4L2_IDENT_SAA7113:
-		saa711x_writeregs(sd, saa7113_init);
+		if (client->dev.platform_data)
+			saa711x_writeregs(sd, saa7113_new_init);
+		else
+			saa711x_writeregs(sd, saa7113_init);

                break;
        default:
                state->crystal_freq = SAA7115_FREQ_32_11_MHZ;
                saa711x_writeregs(sd, saa7115_init_auto_input);
        }
        if (state->ident > V4L2_IDENT_SAA7111A)
                saa711x_writeregs(sd, saa7115_init_misc);

        if (client->dev.platform_data) {
                struct saa7115_platform_data *data = client->dev.platform_data;
                saa7115_load_platform_data(state, data);
        }

It's not strictly necessary, but it feels a lot cleaner?
Would you accept this into the kernel, or would it just increase
maintenance?
