Use struct fwnode_handle pointer instead of OF-specific one.

Also here is the question, why do you need to have that field in the
regmap config structure and can't simply use the parent's fwnode?
Also I'm puzzled why it's not working w/o this patch: GPIO library
effectively assigns parent's fwnode (okay, of_node right now).
