Subject: [hwmon] it87: fix sio_data to platform_device_add_data
Message-id: <20100212171441.3355.63491.send-patch@aqua>
Patchwork-id: 23260
O-Subject: [RHEL5.6 PATCH 3/5] hwmon: it87: fix passing of &sio_data to
	platform_device_add_data()
Bugzilla: 559950
RH-Acked-by: David Milburn <dmilburn@redhat.com>

Resolves RHBZ 559950.

The call to platform_device_add_data() passes '&sio_data' as the second arg.
This results in an "Unable to handle kernel paging request at ..." type panic
when a 'modprobe it87' is executed on a system with the relevant chip.

The upstream version of this driver passes 'sio_data' minus the '&'.
