Actually, it's your device tree that's broken.  The above is the right
way to do it.  The other way:

static struct of_device_id mpc834x_ids[] = {
        { .type = "soc", },
        { .compatible = "soc", },
        { .compatible = "simple-bus", },
        {},
};

is the old way.  You're missing a compatible=simple-bus in your device tree.
