That depends on how you want it to work. On parisc, the Lasi (SCSI and other) devices are technically "platform" in that they're all ASIC'd together and soldered on to the main board. However, it was easier to create a parisc_bus type and lump them all under it than to use a platform device....however, we did this in the very early days of the generic device, a platform device might be more appropriate now.
