[PATCH v3 3/4] mfd: mfd-core: reattach mfd of_node to cells without of_compatible

[Quentin Schulz <quentin.schulz@free-electrons.com>]

When an MFD cell has an of_compatible (meaning it is present in the Device
Tree), other nodes can reference it using a phandle.

However when the MFD cell is not declared in the Device Tree, the only way
other nodes can reference it are by using a phandle to the MFD. Then when
this MFD cell tries to register itself in one framework, the registration
is denied by the framework because it is not matching the of_node of the
node which is referenced by the phandle in one of the other nodes.

This reattaches the of_node of the MFD to the MFD cell device structure
when the MFD cell has no of_compatible.

We need this modification to register the thermal sensor in the thermal
framework.

Added in v3.
