I would prefer just dropping usage of device_find_ or device_for_each_
with storing an array decoders in the port directly. The port already
has arrays for dports , endpoints, and regions. Using the "device" APIs
to iterate children was a bit lazy, and if the id is used as the array
key then a direct lookup makes some cases simpler.
