I'm not sure this is the best way to instantiate the drivers.
Code with platfrom_device_add*() is related to platform which
instantiates the necessary set of the drivers.
In case of OF it should be done in Device Tree, in ACPI case you would
have some device description for that in DSDT table.

It should return proper %-ERRNO code. I think to achieve this the
following can be used
return ret;

You better allocate this on a heap and put as a pointer to the device
driver private data.

Ditto for entire pvpanic_data instance.
