Regarding this, maybe we should have a list of driver names we don't 
expect to support, like simple_bus. For this to work probably the best 
approach is to have a config option similar to CONFIG_OF_REMOVE_PROPS, 
so each config can add their owns.

I agree with you. Thanks.

Yes, it will be a great improvement!
