One complication is of_platform_populate is designed to be called
multiple times. We call it with the default match table and then
platforms can call it again with a custom match table for example.

NULL is no match table, not the default which means only populate
immediate children.

I think this needs to be a bit different args as the use is limited.
root and parent must not be NULL. dev should be the same as parent.
lookup was for legacy, so drop that.
