I do agree that this might not be a right place, but I couldn't find a better
place to populate id. Below is the flow on how platform_device gets created.
of_platform_default_populate_init
	->of_platform_default_populate
		-> of_platform_populate
			->of_platform_bus_create
				-> of_platform_device_create_pdata
					-> of_device_alloc
						-> platform_device_alloc("", PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE);

At this point platform_device gets created with dummy device_id. Also there are
no hooks to add custom device_ids.

Nope, this is done in dev_pm_domain_attach which is called before driver probe
in platform_drv_probe().

DT doesn't provide any such facility for populating device_add. I am open for
any suggestions :)

Thanks and regards,
