But why not use dev_get_drvdata directly.
It simplifies getting the 'driver_data' from 'struct device' directly.
And the platform_device here is not required.
Replace it can remove the unnecessary step back and forth. (dev -> pdev -> dev).

Just like the commit
ed835136ee67 ("mfd: Use dev_get_drvdata() directly")
1948d498dcf6("thermal: intel: int340x: processor_thermal_device:
simplify to get driver data")
and many other similar commits in the Linux git log.
