In discussions BenH and I have had, we've actually concluded that moving this from platform drivers to of_platform drives is not actually a good idea.
In fact we're planning to move away from of_platform devices and drivers and instead develop a framework for instantiating platform devices or i2c devices or whatever devices from the device tree nodes.
