Hi Sakari, thanks for your feedback.
I thought that the difference is not in OF (which either way ends up
calling __of_device_is_available()), but in ACPI.
For fwnode_for_each_child_node(), the ACPI callback is
acpi_get_next_subnode(), and I don't see that the device_is_available()
callback is used in that case.
For fwnode_for_each_available_child_node(),
fwnode_get_next_available_child_node() is used, which checks
fwnode_device_is_available(), which then calls device_is_available().
What's the catch?
Thanks again and best regards,
Javier Carrasco
