[PATCH 3/4] core: platform: let platform_create_bundle initialize module owner

From: Wolfram Sang
Date: Mon Oct 20 2014 - 11:33:27 EST


Since commit 9447057eaff8 ("platform_device: use a macro instead of
platform_driver_register"), platform_driver_register() always overwrites
the .owner field of a platform_driver with THIS_MODULE. This breaks
platform_create_bundle() which uses it via platform_driver_probe() from
within the platform core instead of the module init. Fix it by using a
similar #define construct to obtain THIS_MODULE and pass it on later.
