The bootloader should apply the overlay.

You don't have to make treewide changes. Define a new function returning
struct device. Make of_find_device_by_node() a wrapper that gets the
platform_device from the struct device.

of_platform_bus_create() works on both. Also, it handles some conditions
not handled here.
