FWIW, it looks like most of these instances could be cleaned up even 
more with of_device_get_match_data().

In general, do bear in mind that adding these NULL checks *everywhere* 
will in many cases just amount to useless dead code - a pure DT-based 
driver can usually freely assume of_match_node() returns non-NULL for 
its own device and match table in its probe routine, because that probe 
routine only ever gets called if of_driver_match_device() has already 
made the same match in the first place.
