You can't do this.
First of all, of_node objects are reference counted. So even if this was a
legal thing to do you would have to drop the reference to the existing of_node
pointer and gain a reference to dev->of_node.
But even more importantly, it is the job of the bus driver to set that
bus->dev.of_node correctly, you should never override it in a driver like
this.
I'm not applying this, sorry.
