Again, not ok, these are real busses, don't hang them off the platform
bus, have them be at the root of the device tree so they aren't
"hidden".

Why isn't this just NULL? It's pretending to be a platform device by
doing this, which isn't ok.

Again, this isn't ok, check the type of the device if you really want to
"know" what it is, don't assume that it is going to be at one level deep
in the platform device hierarchy.

Again, no "pretending" to be a platform device if it really isn't.

My end-goal is to just remove this external reference entirely, no one
outside of the platform file should be referencing it, just like all
other busses.
