This seems weird.

You are right, this doesn't work for platform devices being added
through the OF path.

In other words, of_platform_device_create_pdata() manually allocates
the platform device and assigns it the &platform_bus_type, but without
calling platform_device_add().

For amba, it works fine, as in that OF path, amba_device_add() is called. Hmm.

I re-spin this, to address the problem. Perhaps we simply need to use
the ->probe() path.

Kind regards
