The driver can be matched by legacy platform way or OF-device matching.
In the first case, of_match_node() can return NULL, which immediately
would be dereferenced to get the match data.

Addresses-Coverity: Dereference null return value

Not tested on HW, but the code should be equivalent (plus safer).

Now I have second thoughts whether NULL pointer can actually happen.  If
device is matched via platform/board files, maybe the pdev->dev.of_node
will be NULL thus skipping this branch?

Could there be a case where device is matched via platform_device_id()
(which has different name than compatible!) and (pdev->dev.of_node) is
still assigned? Maybe in case of out of tree DTS?

Anyway, the patch makes the code simpler/smaller, so I still think it is
reasonable. Just the severity of issue is questionable...

Best regards,
Krzysztof

That seems unlikely, the platform device would need to be initialized
via board file and then its of_node assigned somehow. It doesn't make
much sense to me. We either use board file or dtb to instantiate devices.

Yes, the patch looks good. Similar cleanups are already done in most of
the s3c/s5p/exynos drivers.

Thanks Sylwester, I'll resend with different description.
