Hi Simon,

Thanks for your feedback.

Are you sure you checked linux-next and not renesas-drivers? I checked 
next-20170424.

$ git grep "dev->of_node" -- drivers/media/platform/rcar-vin/
drivers/media/platform/rcar-vin/rcar-core.c:107:        if (vin->digital.asd.match.of.node == subdev->dev->of_node) {
drivers/media/platform/rcar-vin/rcar-core.c:161:        ep = of_graph_get_endpoint_by_regs(vin->dev->of_node, 0, 0);

Here vin->dev->of_node is correct and subdev->dev->of_node should be 
fixed by Kieran patch. I'm only asking to be sure I did not miss 
anything. In renesas-drivers the Gen3 patches are included and more 
references to subdev->dev->of_node exists, but as Kieran sates these 
fixes will be squashed into those patches since they are not yet picked 
up.
