As mentioned, I don't mind either, so let's change it up.

@Igor, can you please pick up the patch in [1] and at the same time drop the
patch introducing FwNode::is_compatible() and replace node.is_compatible() with
node.is_of_node() in this one?

Please also remember to add your SoB to the patches not authored by yourself.

Thanks,
Danilo
