Add a new .of_match field to struct device which points at the
matching device driver .of_match_table entry when a device is probed
via the device tree

Couldn't of_match/of_match_table be merged into the platform dev/drv 
id_entry/id_table. Handling MODALIAS for a driver that does both OF 
style and normal platform device matching may be a problem though.

.of_match & .of_match_table works on all devices, not just
platform devices.  It allows the common library of device tree support
routines to be used with any bus type.
