The idea is to allow device with a software_node description to match
with the content of the of_match_table. Without this, we would need a
new type of match table that would probably duplicates part of the
of_match_table to be able to match software_node against a driver.
I did not found an other way to do it without modifying drivers
individually to support software_nodes.
