I think there are about 3 non-obvious uses of it, which would probably need looking into. All other ones that simply do of_platform_populate() or platform_device_register*() with platform_bus as a parent, which has exactly the same effect as it was NULL. I can imagine situations where one would want to walk the device hierarchy stopping at platform_bus, how I'm not sure how "legitimate" that would be. I'll post v3 with NULLs where I think it is enough so we can see the other cases.
