+static int device_class_name_match(struct device *dev, void *class)
And why not const char *class?
This was raised back in v2, and the same response applies:

https://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@vger.kernel.org/msg147559.html

Changing the signature of a callback is out of the scope of this patch

Ah, right.

But why not to use void *class_name to be consistent with callback and
device_find_child()?

Btw,

return get_device(parent);
