Since I literally just sent this in another email you couldn't have seen yet, I'll repeat it here. Feel free to follow up to this with a series to further update things, Wolfgang.
So we have now a policy to wave through code, and ask others to clean it up later? That's ... sad.
No, we continue to have the policy of expecting reviewers to follow the whole discussion and relevant subsystems. Changing _every_ caller of dev_get_priv to check for NULL and then, what? is clearly not the right answer. If you think you see a problem here please go audit the DM code itself more and propose some changes.
