This is for fixes created as a result of kernel test robot report.
Reports on your broken patches should not have this.

That is just plain ugly and not understandable. Why do you still need
of_pci_node_match_driver()? If compatible using VID/PID doesn't match
the actual VID/PID, then you should never probe.

The prior explanations didn't really clear things up either. I'm
really at a loss as to what are the scenarios you need to work. Please
enumerate what are the different scenarios of what's in the DTs and
how you need the kernel/driver to respond.
