That doesn't reflect the organisation of the bits in the registers. If
you're interested, please check the datasheet.

If anyone is interested in figuring out, I'll let them test :-)

Any refcount taken on the OF node needs to be dropped. The device core
only drops the refcount when the device is being deleted, not when
there's an unbind-rebind cycle without deletion of the device (as
happens for instance when the module is unloaded and reloaded). This has
to be handled by the driver. device_set_of_node_from_dev() handles it.
