I missed the point you added a driver, so obviously this won't print
messages needlessly, but it is just confusing. Looks not needed, because
your device driver should bind to specific node. Why do you need it?

Especially that now you defined undocumented ABI for the node name.

Try to find a recently reviewed driver and use it as your template. This
entire code looks very different than others - including naming of
functions.
