Great, I will implement this in v2.

These patches really just enforce the use of a named initializer for
the `driver_data` field
in the lists and do not change the actual compiled binary. So, the
change applied is purely
cosmetic, and the modules touched there don't use `driver_data` as a
pointer anyway.
I do think that making the code more readable has merit (if it comes
with no risk).

Thanks.
