Hrm.  I considered that for a while with 44x, before deciding it
wasn't worth the extra hassle of passing a bunch of things around.  If
you look at the 44x version, you'll see that the device tree poking
part is just the last few lines of the function and more-or-less
independent from the rest of it.  So it should be easy to make the
function separable into hw-logic vs. dt-logic portions if we ever need
to.
