I know it would work. If you check all my patches you see both patterns
used depending on the needs:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/?q=f%3Akrzysztof+of_device_id
(~100 patches so far)

The point is that here the device can actually match via ID table, so OF
table could stay optional. I don't think PRP0001 is relevant here, thus
I proposed to keep OF table optional. Different folks have different
opinion on that, so if general consensus is that availability of OF ID
table (for PRP0001) is preferred, I can rework the patch towards it.
