Your Signed-off-by and the mail's From uses capital letters. Can you
please make them all match?

Yeah, all entries in the of_match_table have a .data pointer.
Theoretically the driver could be bound by driver.name and then
of_device_get_match_data returns NULL.

It's still ok to drop this check if you want to, I just want to make
sure this possibility is known.
