Don't do that.  There is a significant oddity now around this in that
it is possible to use a magic ACPI device ID to probe via a devicetree
binding (without CONFIG_OF).  It's seriously odd, but to allow that to
work we need to not protect things with #ifdef CONFIG_OF.

(and this particular bit of fun strikes me as crazy too, but it's what
we have!)

(towards the bottom)

Having MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE is a good addition.

That would be perfect as you are rerolling anyway. Let's me be lazy
and not do the merge ;)
