I wonder, why it is either OF of platform data? What if I want my kernel
to fall-back to platform data if device tree data is absent? What is the
general policy? Sorry, I am not very well aware of the DT stuff. But off
the top of my head, it is logical when things go like this: I have a
kernel with working platform data, but I can change that dynamically by
feeding it a device tree configuration. Hmm?
