Frankly, I don't like it. It doesn't look more readable and it doesn't
prevent from subtle bugs. device_match_of_node() was introduced when you
are *iterating* over a list of devices, see the commit which introduced
it. I think replacing every 'open coded' version with this helper is a
bad idea.

Happy hacking,
