[PATCH] of: require a match on all fields of of_device_id

Commit 107a84e61cdd3406c842a0e4be7efffd3a05dba6 ("of: match by compatible
property first") breaks the gianfar ethernet driver found on various
Freescale PPC chips.

There are, for unfortunate historical reasons, two nodes with a
compatible of "gianfar".  One has a device_type of "network" and the
other has device_type of "mdio".  The match entries look like this:

>         {
>                 .type = "mdio",
>                 .compatible = "gianfar",
>         },

and

>         {
>                 .type = "network",
>                 .compatible = "gianfar",
>         },

With the above patch, both nodes get probed by the first driver, because
nothing else in the match struct is looked at if there's a compatible
match.
