[PATCH] staging: iio: ak8975: Remove i2c client data corruption

From: Preetham Chandru
Date: Mon Apr 09 2012 - 08:36:49 EST


i2c client data set is of type struct indio_dev pointer and hence the
pointer returned from i2c_get_clientdata() should be assigned to
an object of type struct indio_dev and not to an object of type
struct ak8975_data.

Also in ak8975_probe() client data should be set first
before calling ak8975_setup() as it references the client data.
