Side note (mostly for Miguel): That series by Lars was indeed problematic.
And I see now that he didn't get the parameter to the charlcd_alloc(). Now
we have problem that your patch solves and dangling parameter in the struct
charlcd_priv. So, I will restore charlcd_alloc() before his series (after
this patch has been applied, because of the backport needs) for a new
kernel development cycle.
