I think it would be useful to pick up of_platform devices even if
they get reclassified as regular platform devices because a new
libsensors may some day encounter an old kernel.

I, err, committed it to test commit priviledges.  Oops.  I will
pull it out if there exist really strong objections to this code.

(2.6.25-rc8 still has of_platform in it...)
