I'd prefer this to go into drivers/base/component.c. That's the
general direction we've been moving.

I'd prefer not to, I don't want to turn the component helpers into
something OF specific.  They aren't OF specific.

I'd expect this would cause some build failures unless the cases you
converted all depend on CONFIG_OF.

Okay, I'll stick with v1 then, and the duplication that v1 involves.
