An MD hook is wrong.  You should be using properties for this (you  
can set the property in your platform's device_register() routine).   
(Yes, I know that there are currently other drivers that do this  
incorrectly, but those came before properties existed in our kernel.)

In general, changes like this should be reviewed...
