We do have some stuff in there in order to handle MFDs - they'll instantiate a Linux-internal virtual platform device as a child of the DT device that represents the device as a whole. We're definitely not expecting to find anything for parentless platform devices though, it's only done if the ASoC level device has no of_node and the parent does.
