In fa1f68db ("drivers: misc: pass miscdevice pointer via file private data"), the misc driver infrastructure was changed to assigned file->private_data as a pointer to the 'struct miscdevice' that corresponds to the device being opened. However, this assignment was only done when the misc driver was declaring a driver-specific ->open() operation in its file_operations. This doesn't make sense, as the driver may not necessarily have a custom ->open() operation, and might still be interested in having file->private_data properly set for use in its ->read() and write() operations. Therefore, we move the assignment of file->private_data outside of the condition that tests whether a driver-specific ->open() operation was defined.
