After rebasing my own branch on v6.8-rc5 from v6.8-rc1 I started
getting unexpected warnings during device tree overlay removal. After a
somewhat painful bisection I identified this patch as the one that
triggers it all.

There seem to be a bug here: "!index" should be "index > 0", as the
comment suggests. Otherwise NULL is always returned.

I am going to send a quick patch for that, but haven't done so yet
because it still won't solve the problem, so I wanted to open the topic
here without further delay.

Even with the 'index > 0' fix I'm still getting pretty much the same:

By comparing the two versions I found that before removing the overlay:

 * in the "working" case (with this patch reverted) I have:

   # ls /sys/class/devlink/ | grep 002c
   platform:hpbr--i2c:13-002c
   platform:panel-dsi-lvds--i2c:13-002c
   platform:regulator-sys-1v8--i2c:13-002c
   regulator:regulator.31--i2c:13-002c
   #

 * in the "broken" case (v6.8-rc5 + s/!index/index > 0/ as mentioned):

   # ls /sys/class/devlink/ | grep 002c
   platform:hpbr--i2c:13-002c
   platform:regulator-sys-1v8--i2c:13-002c
   regulator:regulator.30--i2c:13-002c
   # 

So in the latter case the panel-dsi-lvds--i2c:13-002c link is missing.
I think it gets created but later on removed. Here's a snippet of the
kernel log when that happens:

And here's the relevant portion of my device tree overlay:

That's all I could get at this point. Any clues for further
investigation?
