[PATCH v1 0/10] Fixes and API additions for firmware nodes

[PATCH v1 0/10] Fixes and API additions for firmware nodes

[Tomeu Vizoso]

Hi,

this series makes it possible to extract device dependencies from firmware data
with fwnode, thus not depending on the particular format of that data.

The first patches are about making sure that we can reach the fwnode
handle of the firmware data associated with a given device, and the rest
add API that makes dependency extraction possible.

Thanks,

Tomeu

[PATCH v1 02/10] i2c: core: Have clients point to their firmware nodes

[Tomeu Vizoso]

This is needed by platform-independent code that needs to do something
with devices based on the data provided by the firmware.

It would really help if you sent the whole series to linux-acpi.  People on
that list would see the entire context then.

Dunno the status of this series, but the i2c change is trivial enough.
So in case, the rest is accepted:

Currently my series is moving away from fwnode because the current
approach is very much dependent on the firmware, but I think this fix
is worth in its own because someone else will find this problem sooner
or later.

Tomeu

If you think it is a bugfix, then please resend this individually. If
not, we will just wait until someone needs it.
