Ah, this is what I was referring to in the other mail.

However, the way you set the of_node might be dangerous too:
We should generally not have two platform_device structures with
the same of_node pointer, most importantly it may cause the
child device to be bound to the same driver as the parent
device since the probing is done by compatible string.

As you tested it successfully, it must work at the moment on your
machine, but it could easily break depending on deferred probing
or module load order.
