Please check below comments from Thomas Abraham and I agree with his opinion. There cannot be a node that represents a virtual device. Device tree should ideally describe the hardware but the above node does not represent a hardware device. The creation of the platform device instance for the above device should handled inside the kernel code.
I don't tend to agree with this opinion. Is there any further reasoning behind it? Is it a current policy of the kernel that nodes should only represent real devices? Best regards, Tomasz Figa
