Hi Rob,

Here devtype is initialised.

And in the old code devtype was conditionally re-initialised here,
if a match with data was found.

But in the new code devtype is re-initialised unconditionally.

Possibly I am missing something obvious, but it seems that either this
should somehow be made conditional, or the initialisation to &xcan_axi_data
should be dropped.
