Of the three drivers converted only the rockchip one has the above
of_device_is_available() hunk. Based on the handling in previous loop
I'm not entirely sure if it's needed, but if so shouldn't one mention
the difference when converting the respective drivers ?

I'm not working on/familiar with either of these drivers so this is
just a fly-by comment.

Cheers,
Emil
