Thanks for catching it up. Will fix it and resend

Now it is only used by ibmebus


ricardo@...pili:~/linux-upstream$ git grep of_device_add
arch/powerpc/kernel/ibmebus.c:  ret = of_device_add(dev);
drivers/of/device.c:int of_device_add(struct platform_device *ofdev)
drivers/of/device.c:    return of_device_add(pdev);
include/linux/of_device.h:extern int of_device_add(struct
platform_device *pdev);

I think it can also use platform_device_add. I will prepare a patch to
finally remove of_device_add()

Thanks!
