This name is far too long. Rename it to remove the 'data' bits. This makes
it consistent with the platdata->plat rename.

We use 'priv' for private data but often use 'platdata' for platform data.
We can't really use 'pdata' since that is ambiguous (it could mean private
or platform data).
Rename some of the latter variables to end with 'plat' for consistency.

This construct is quite long-winded. In earlier days it made some sense
since auto-allocation was a strange concept. But with driver model now
used pretty universally, we can shorten this to 'auto'. This reduces
verbosity and makes it easier to read.
Coincidentally it also ensures that every declaration is on one line,
thus making dtoc's job easier.

At present a device can read its ofdata before its parent has done the
same. This can cause problems in the case where the parent has a 'ranges'
property, thus affecting the operation of dev_read_addr(), for example.
We already probe parent devices before children so it does not seem to be
a large step to do the same with ofdata.
Make the change and update the documentation in this area.
