I presume then that the rest of the resume path is the same as the
initialization.

Correct, it will scan all subnodes and try to match their compatible
with platform_drivers. For each match it finds it probes that driver.

But as far as I know the compatible of node that you name
"qcom,zap-shader" must actually match a platform_driver for there to be
a device that of_find_device_by_node() will be able to match against.
The heavy lifting I'm talking about is (untested):
struct device zap_dev;
zap_dev.of_node = of_get_child_by_name("zap-shader");
zap_dev.parent = &pdev->dev;
dev_set_name(&zap_dev, "zap-shader");
ret = device_register(&zap_dev);
if (ret < 0) {
dev_err();
return ret;
}
of_reserved_mem_device_init(&zap_dev);
And then you need a device_put(&zap_dev) when you're done with the
device and if you set zap_dev.release you can have that clean things
up...
