Greg, can you drop this patch, or do you need a proper changelog for a
revert? On top of that I'd then create a new patch which is more
conservative.

A hint as to what the git commit id was would be helpful, I can just
revert it based on that.

This is 67d02a1bbb33 ("driver-core: platform: probe of-devices only
using list of compatibles")

If you need a log, something like:

	Reallow binding of of-devices by name

	It turned out that there are valid reasons (e.g. step by step
	conversion to device tree probing using auxdata) to bind
	of-instantiated devices to drivers by name. So revert to the
	original logic.

Now reverted, thanks for the text.
