The device we are creating here is not something to be created via DT.
So in addition to the devices that match to the DSS hardware blocks, we
have a 'omapdss' platform device. That's a legacy one, and it's
"virtual" in the sense that it doesn't match any HW block as such.
At some point the device should be removed totally, but for now it's
there and it's a convenient way to pass the platform data.

Yes, at the moment I'm trying to minimize the kind of code changes that
can be done later. It'd be great to get this into next merge window, but
time is running short if I do any bigger changes.
