did you mean something like this: (on top of my patch)

Hmm, this doesn't look better either. I think the necessary change is just the access of device_count in partport_register_dev_model(). This can be replaced with pdev->id, so that you don't touch device_count at all there.
In anyway, these patch series (also for mst) are too late for 4.5. These are neither serious bug fix nor function improvement, and the drivers you're modifying are for the very minor devices. So, please resubmit after the next merge window is closed.
While we're at it, some comments about other patches in the series: I see no big merit to split several whitespace and blank line patches. These are basically all whitespace fixes, so smash as a single patch. The most important point is that this won't change any code context at all but just a matter of white spaces. (And write it clearly in the change log -- so that reader can ignore this e.g. while bisecting.)
The NULL check is a matter of taste and isn't worth to fix at all.
The assignment in if is good to fix in general, so this can be a separate patch indeed.
thanks,
Takashi
