CC'ed Mark Brown (author of dev_get_platdata function)

1. Motivation
This is a cosmetic change by in order to enhance readability and make
the code simpler.

If you want, I will modify the commit message as below:
"Use the wrapper function for retrieving the platform data instead of
accessing dev->platform_data directly. This is a cosmetic change
in order to enhance readability and make the code simpler."

2. via the separate trees
It should go via the separate trees.

3. Other opinions
Until now, there is no objection.
Also, 21 patches of all 35 patches have been applied by each maintainer.

Mark Brown,
Sorry for CC'ing you.
If I am wrong, please let me know kindly. :)
