platform: add new device registration helper
Add a helper that registers simple platform_device w/o resources but with parent and device data. This is usefull to cleanup platform code from code that registers such simple devices as leds-gpio, generic-bl, etc. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Baryshkov <dbaryshkov@gmail.com> Cc: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
