This breaks a number of GPIO controllers on Tegra where chip->fwnode
ends up never getting set. I also see this break drivers like the MFD-
based gpio-max77620, so I don't think this is anything specific to the
Tegra drivers.

Looking at how fwnode handling works, it seems like we're checking the
wrong value here, since chip->fwnode is only for explicit overrides of
the fwnode value.

The below patch fixes the regression for me:

        if (!np)
                return 0;

That uses the GPIO device's fwnode, which can be chip->fwnode if
chip->fwnode was explicitly specified. Otherwise this defaults to 

See gpiochip_add_data_with_key() in drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c:

    677 |	/*
    678 |	 * Assign fwnode depending on the result of the previous calls,
    679 |	 * if none of them succeed, assign it to the parent's one.
    680 |	 */
    681 |	gdev->dev.fwnode = dev_fwnode(&gdev->dev) ?: fwnode;

Looks like this is only important to make sure gdev->dev.fwnode is valid
for OF, for ACPI this should be a no-op.
