You meaning setting of the of_node to the next patch? I can do that if that;s
what you want.

I thought we need a bus where we want to add the device, haven't tried with that
pointer being empty. Will try that and let you know.

We also use it for playing with clk/regulator stuff as well, though we may not
use it in genpd case for now.
