Then, what about something like the following?

 static int tegra_ahb_match_by_smmu(struct device *dev, void *data)
 {
 	struct tegra_ahb *ahb = dev_get_drvdata(dev);
 	struct device_node *dn = data;
 
 	return (ahb->dev->of_node == dn) ? 1 : 0
 }
 
 int tegra_ahb_enable_smmu(struct device_node *ahb)
 {
 	struct device *dev;
 	u32 val;
 
 	dev = driver_find_device(&tegra_ahb_driver.driver, NULL, ahb,
 				 tegra_ahb_match_by_smmu);
 	if (!dev)
 		return -ENODEV;
 
 	val = gizmo_readl(ahb, AHB_ARBITRATION_XBAR_CTRL);
 	val |= AHB_ARBITRATION_XBAR_CTRL_SMMU_INIT_DONE;
 	gizmo_writel(ahb, val, AHB_ARBITRATION_XBAR_CTRL);
 	return 0;
 }
 EXPORT_SYMBOL(tegra_ahb_enable_smmu);
