I have the same question and this sounds like warning produced by
automated checks of some sort... (and these kind of patch are suspicious
given what happens in the last few years)
In practice this can never happen... of_match_device can't fail as it's
called only if a matching compatible is found hence the thing MUST be
present BEFORE probe is even called.
