If a constraint given to __of_device_is_compatible() does not
match, we should just move to the next constraint without adding
to the compatibility score. Instead, the function immediately
returns 0.

Do not return from __of_device_is_compatible() until a complete
score has been calculated.

This matching is very sensitive to changes. Can you please describe
what conditions don't work for you and add a test case for that
condition to the unit test.

Ah, thanks for pointing out the unit test.

Looking at the test cases there cleared up the misunderstanding I had 
which led me to suggest the patch. It does seem that the 
short-circuiting in __of_device_is_compatible() is intentional.

Please disregard. Sorry for the noise.
