Hi Deepak,

This works for drivers still using the deprecated of_platform_driver
structure, but all of those users are being converted into
platform_drivers which do not use this shim.  Fixing it here will not
work after conversion.

I think it would be better to inhibit the devices from getting registered in
the first place instead of short circuiting the probe path.
