[PATCH 1/4] of/device: Add a way to probe drivers by match data

[Stephen Boyd]

We have a handful of clk drivers that have a collection of slightly
variant device support keyed off of the compatible string. In each of
these drivers, we demux the variant and then call the "real" probe
function based on whatever is stored in the match data for that
compatible string. Let's generalize this function so that it can be
re-used as the platform_driver probe function directly.
