Don't access of_root directly as it reduces the build test coverage for
this driver with COMPILE_TEST=y and OF=n. Use existing helper functions
to retrieve the relevant information.

Doesn't of_machine_device_match() work here?
No, because we're using the returned address of the matching struct
of_device_id later in the function. If you think it's a better idea to
introduce of_machine_match_node(), let me know but I think that should
be done separately.
No, it's fine.
