I'm not sure. We don't necessarily look for parent device(s). We start
with a struct device and if it matches the fwnode, success is returned
immediately. Only otherwise we iterate over parent devices to find a
match.

I can shift it right below fwnode_get_nth_parent if you prefer.

How about the following name:
fwnode_find_dev_match()
?
