platform_device: use a macro instead of platform_driver_register
I found a lot of mistakes using struct platform_driver without owner so I make a macro instead of the function platform_driver_register. It can set owner in it, then guys don`t care about module owner again. Signed-off-by: Libo Chen <libo.chen@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
