Please, apply review comment to all occurrence, so same here.

Same here.

Would be nice to coordinate with Qianfeng Rong <rongqianfeng at vivo.com> [0], he
ported the entire driver to this initialization method, which is clearly the way
to go.

- Patch 1 will port the driver to {} stack init
- Patch 2 will add missing initializes

Consistency is key for this type of things since developer usually follow the
surrounding style.

Nicolas
