The series landed yesterday in net-next, so I need to send a fix on
top. Would you be ok with single patch fixing all EXPORT_SYMBOL()
occurences? Those would be 2 new routines:
- fwnode_get_mac_address
- fwnode_irq_get
and  2 already existing in the file:
- device_get_mac_address
- fwnode_graph_parse_endpoint

Please let know, how you prefer to handle it?

Best regards,
Marcin
