不要被上面的platform_drv_XXX吓倒了，它们其实很简单，就是将struct device转换为struct platform_device和struct platform_driver，然后调用platform_driver中的相应接口函数。那为什么不直接调用platform_drv_XXX等接口 呢？这就是Linux内核中面向对象的设计思想。
device_driver提供了一些操作接口，但其并没有实现，相当于一些虚函数，由派生类platform_driver进行重载，无论何种类型的 driver都是基于device_driver派生而来的，device_driver中具体的各种操作都是基于统一的基类接口的，这样就实现了面向对 象的设计。
在文件中，实现了driver_register()函数。

如果总线上的driver是自动probe的话，则将该总线上的driver和device绑定起来。
