Hi Greg,

Thanks for the review, a few comments inline.

No I didn't mean to do that and I'm not sure where that came from. I'll
fix this up and take a look at some of my other patches! Thanks for
spotting that one.

That shouldn't be there, I'll get rid of that.

I'm making a conscience effort _not_ to do that but it's still ingrained
at the back of my mind and this code has been lingering about for a bit.

Ok, I'll clean these up.

Hmm, I thought I'd got rid of this; it isn't actually being used. I am
using the one in struct device but I haven't added the getter and setter
so I'll put those in for next time.
