PATCH 1/1 thermal: broadcom: sr-thermal: removed call to platform_set_drvdata()

This function call was found to be unnecessary as there is no equivalent platform_get_drvdata() call to access the private data of the driver. Also, the private data is defined in this driver, so there is no risk of it being accessed outside of this driver file.

I had to take a look over how "thermal_zone_device_priv()" works, and it looks like it has nothing to do with the platform_set_drvdata() / dev_set_drvdata() / dev->driver_data stuff.
It defines it's own devdata pointer.
Though, it looks like "thermal_zone_device_priv()" could potentially be converted to use "dev->driver_data"
But that requires a bit of going through all drivers to convert them.

Anyway, for this:
