I don't know about this, all OF nodes other than the root have a
parent node which is non-NULL.  This parent node can be anything.

Just blinding assuming that any parent node of the phy_node is
what we are looking for, without any other supplementary checks
at all, seems to be asking for trouble at the very least.
