In my copy of the file, we the declaration


int ab8500_bm_of_probe(struct device *dev,
                       struct device_node *np,
                       struct abx500_bm_data *bm);



and others that use 'struct device'. C99 requires that a struct is declared
in advance  before you use it in a function declaration.
