this patch breaks boot on the Linux Automation MC-1.
of_platform_device_create() uses of_device_make_bus_id() to generate
a name, but that function is a no-op for the root node.
This results in a platform device with dev->name == NULL, which
inside register_device() -> get_device_by_name_id() -> strcmp
leads to a NULL pointer dereference.
You should probably not use of_platform_device_create, but use
platform_device_register directly and set a suitable name
upfront in the struct device_d you initialize.
