*my personal opinion* - I'm not super happy to see more and more
of_find_node_by_name()'s in random places. but that's just IMHO.

why init_oops_id()? you are going to re-read it every time you call
print_oops_end_marker(), and the system can be configured not to
panic on oops. put it to oops_setup()? or, at least, move it to
`if (!oops_id)' branch, maybe?
