Confirmed. Not only did it bisect to that, reverting it on top of the
current kernel fixes my machine.

So that commit is somehow buggy. I don't see what it does that would
break even with OF disabled, but something does.

I'll just revert it. The way it is done seems bogus anyway.  It looks
at of_node when OF is disabled, but generally that isn't even
initialized as far as I can tell, and we have things like
dev_of_node() helpers to make sure you don't do that.
