Are we loosing the nsessions support?

Do you need to put the reference on the OF node?

Don't do the job of the schema validator. Are there nodes without reg?
No.

Why can't you embed struct device into a structure together with the
list_node (and possibly some other data?)?

Don't loose the error code. Instead please return it to the caller.
