I see .of_match_table added in certain mfd drivers, but I am not sure
what I should put into the name or even the compatible member, I see
them boot neglected in various drivers. The structure here does not
seem to be documented either:
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/include/linux/mod_devicetable.h#L220

I do not know where to get the information for the .name and/or
.compatible entry for, or if I need anything more.
