The dev here is not the remoteproc dev but the rpmsg device which does
not have an OF node, and so I get the ENODEV due to the check on
dev->of_node in genpd_dev_pm_attach. I do have DT remoteproc nodes.

Are you publishing an rpmsg device from the remote side and are they
being probed? Issue is seen only during the probe phase, you will not
see any errors if the rpmsg devices are just being published and created.
