The intel_pmc_core driver did not always bind to a device which meant it lacked a struct device that could be used to maintain driver data. So a global instance of struct pmc_dev was used for this purpose and functions accessed this directly. Since the driver now binds to an ACPI device, remove the global pmc_dev in favor of one that is allocated during probe. Modify users of the global to obtain the object by argument instead.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
