BTW, there's no need to invoke to_pci_dev() at all since
pci_get_drvdata(dev) boils down to dev_get_drvdata(&dev->dev) call. So,
in order not to waste time on useless pointer tricks, we should just
invoke the latter here.

Well, since to_pci_dev() is unnecessary here, I'm taking my request
back. :-)
