ppc32: Make platform devices being able to assign functions (resend)
PATCH 1/2 ppc32: Make platform devices being able to assign functions (resend)
Implemented by modification of the .name field of the platform device, when PDs with the
same names are to be used within different drivers, as <device_name> -> <device_name>:<function>
Corresponding drivers should change the .name in struct device_driver to reflect upper of course.
Also helper platform_notify_map function added, making assignment of board-specific platform_info more consistent and generic.

I'm not certain that the <device_name>:<function> structure for sysfs representation is "allowed" - have you asked GregKH about it?
He didn't seem to have any problem with it when we talked about it at OLS. Also, ':' is already used by the PCI bus driver. Look in /sys/class/pci_bus.
