Well, I think PCI does just that for PCI busses ... (a busless

Doh ! You are creating an of_device with no attached device-node ?
That
is totally evil ! Why do you need that ?
The driver creates a fake ibmebus device so all ibmebus based
devices
have
a common parent
If I make the root device a basic struct device, it can't be part of
ibmebus any
longer. If we could create a busless device, we wouldn't have a problem,
but I
doubt that is possible.
Do you have any creative ideas?
Well, I think PCI does just that for PCI busses ... (a busless device)

Doh ! You are creating an of_device with no attached device-node ? That
is totally evil ! Why do you need that
ibmebus has a fake root device that's not associated with an ofdt node.
Filter out any such devices in of_device_uevent().
