> This patch moves SPARC architecture specific data members out of
> struct of_device and into the pdev_archdata structure.  The reason
> for this change is to unify the struct of_device definition amongst
> all the architectures.  It also remvoes the .sysdata, .slot, .portid
> and .clock_freq properties because they aren't actually used by
> anything.
> 
> A subsequent patch will replace struct of_device entirely with struct
> platform_device and the of_platform support code will share common
> routines with the platform bus (but the bus instances themselves can
> remain separate).
> 
> This patch also adds 'struct resources *resource' and num_resources
> to match the fields defined in struct platform_device.  After this
> change, 'struct platform_device' can be used as a drop-in replacement
> for 'struct of_platform'.
> 
> This change is in preparation for merging the of_platform_bus_type
> with the platform_bus_type.
