Not sure what do to with this one. These warnings can be silenced with
__maybe_unused. But does it actually make sense to build these drivers
with CONFIG_OF disabled?

As I understand it, that's the condition which makes the warnings
appear, and from a quick look at the code, it seems to me that the
drivers are useless then. It might make more sense to make both drivers
depend on OF. What do you think?
