Subject: [PATCH v4 03/10] software node: allow referencing firmware nodes
From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@...aro.org>
At the moment software nodes can only reference other software nodes.
This is a limitation for devices created, for instance, on the auxiliary
bus with a dynamic software node attached which cannot reference devices
the firmware node of which is "real" (as an OF node or otherwise).
Make it possible for a software node to reference all firmware nodes in
addition to static software nodes. To that end: add a second pointer to
struct software_node_ref_args of type struct fwnode_handle. The core
swnode code will first check the swnode pointer and if it's NULL, it
will assume the fwnode pointer should be set. Rework the helper macros
and deprecate the existing ones whose names don't indicate the reference
type.
Software node graphs remain the same, as in: the remote endpoints still
have to be software nodes.
