No, the solution doesn't exist yet, but it wouldn't be hard to
implement. What you need to do is to add a struct device pointer to
struct device_node, and set the pointer to the struct device when
of_platform_device_create creates a device. (it would also need to be
set for early_platform_device creation, but that's not something that
should affect you). You would also add a check to
of_platform_device_create to check if the device pointer is already
set. If it is, then skip creation of the device.
