Why is this desirable? Please see the recent discussion at https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260322-remove-device-find-by-of-node-v1-0-b72eb22a1215@gmail.com specifically replies from Andrew and myself. Merely wanting to drop a dependency is not a good enough reason for these kinds of conversions, because they in effect make the DT properties also apply to ACPI which may not be appropriate (note for example that MDIO busses are not represented in ACPI.) -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last! _______________________________________________ linux-riscv mailing list linux-riscv@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-riscv
