of_node is used as an identifier of the bridge in the kernel. If you
replace it with device pointer there will be potential problem with
devices having two or more bridges, how do you differentiate bridges if
the owner is the same? If I remember correctly current bridge code does
not allow to have multiple bridges in one device, but that should be
quite easy to fix if necessary. After this change it will become more
difficult.
Anyway I remember discussion that in DT world bridge should be
identified rather by of_graph port node, not by parent node as it is
now. If you want to translate this relation to device owner, you should
add also port number to have full identification of the bridge, ie pair
(owner, port_number) would be equivalent of port node.
