Do we really want to have structure definitions in an header file ?
Unless I'm wrong, this means that if the opp3xxx_data.h file is
included in two different C files, the structures will be present twice.
The intent here - DONT DO precisely THAT!

As far as I could see, most of the kernel instantiate structure in C
files instead.
The intent here though was that opp3xx.h and opp4xx.h are private to just opp.c to prevent misuse elsewhere. hmm.. thinking a bit,
find drivers/ -iname "*.c"|xargs grep "#include"| grep -v "\.h"
shows numerous examples of .c files being included in c files. I dont have an issue of renaming these headers as .c file instead (I had carried them over as .h from old implementation, but we can change it), main point being, I just dont want folks mucking around and hacking stuff with the defines.
