Okay, I think I got it. There is a function called tegra_gpiochip_match()
in drivers/hte/hte-tegra194.c which fails after my patch. Yeah, if provider
doesn't set fwnode, it can't match. But, since the driver sets the parent
properly it means that the matching function should be done against the
device.

Seems to me that in HTE code the matching function is broken.
