Because this is the most used style. The rationale for the trailing
comma is that if you want to add a new assignment to a multiline
initializer you have to touch the line without comma:

 	}, {
 		.compatible = "asus,tf600t-ec-pad",
-		.data = &asus_ec_tf600t_pad_data
+		.data = &asus_ec_tf600t_pad_data,
+		.something_else = &foobar,
 	},

so if the comma is already there, the patch reduces to:

 	}, {
 		.compatible = "asus,tf600t-ec-pad",
 		.data = &asus_ec_tf600t_pad_data,
+		.something_else = &foobar,
 	},

. For adding a new assignment to:

 	{ .compatible = "..." }

you have to touch the line anyhow, so there is no advantage to already
have the comma. And then it seems parsimony prevails.
