Wouldn't if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF)&& np) be sufficient here, without
the #ifdef? You would have to move the match table out of the #ifdef
in this case, though...

That's the exact reason why I've used #ifdef CONFIG_OF here, I didn't
want to add the overhead of the pcf857x_of_table when CONFIG_OF isn't
defined.

I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but I think there was something said
in one of discussions some time ago, that we should be moving away from
ifdef'ing such things, in favour of just having them compiled
unconditionally.

There seems to be a general consensus to favor if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF))
instead of #ifdef CONFIG_OF when possible. I'm not sure what the opinion is
regarding using conditional compilation to avoid compiling unnecessary data
tables in. I would vote for using it (there's no need to bloat the kernel
unnecessarily on non-OF platforms), but I'll conform to whatever is decided to
be best.

[Adding DT maintainers on Cc for more opinions.]

I'll resubmit the patch with the DT bindings documentation fixed, and will
submit yet another version if I need to remove the #ifdef.

I think it makes sense to keep this table compiled in conditionally, size of
struct of_device_id is relatively large. While absolute increase in size
might not be that significant the relative increase is quite large - appr. 130%.
