So I'm going to do the following to address your concern.  Please let
me know if you still do not buy it.

static struct platform_device_id mxc_gpio_devtype[] = {
        {
                .name = "imx1-gpio",
                .driver_data = IMX1_GPIO,
        }, {
                .name = "imx21-gpio",
                .driver_data = IMX2_GPIO,
        }, {
                .name = "imx25-gpio",
                .driver_data = IMX_GPIO,
        }, {
                .name = "imx27-gpio",
                .driver_data = IMX2_GPIO,
        }, {
                .name = "imx-gpio",
                .driver_data = IMX_GPIO,
        }, {
                /* sentinel */
        }
};
