Yeah, this patch is just plain incorrect AFAICS.

I don't see how check dev->driver is implemented on OF side then


of_device_get_match_data() which is called by
of_fwnode_device_get_match_data() has dereferenced dev->driver w/o any
check.

I can't agree that the patch is plain incorrect, if I didn't miss
anything.


Sorry, i should have been more specific. I was talkimg about match_data not driver.

I agree that driver check is redundant.
