First I have to admit that I'm not an expert when it comes to DT overlays.

That said, my understanding is that the sub-device and the async sub-device
are supposed to point to the exactly same DT node. I wonder if there's
actually anything wrong in the current code.

If the overlay has changed between probing the driver for the async notifier
and the async sub-device, there should be no match here, should there? The
two nodes actually point to a node in a different overlay in that case.
