Looks like it. So any driver using module_platform_driver() or platform_driver_register() and also initializes platform_driver.driver.owner is just being redundant. Maybe another "cleanup" project for Jingoo Han? ;) > If there's anything left to fix for this driver, please let me know. pxa3xx_nand is still missing a parent for its MTD's (mtd->dev.parent). I have a follow-up patch queued up locally that I need to send out sometime.
