Re: [PATCH 1/7] spi: Add support for device table matching

- If you don't store "id" in the device struct, you'll have
to look up the device table twice (at first during bus->match(),
and second time in drivers' probe() hook, i.e.
probe(struct bus_dev *dev) {
id = bus_get_devid(dev); /* here */
}

Hm... actually, we're doing this anyway, but in spi core.

So, doing something like spi_get_device_id() might be a good
idea.

Thanks,
