Rafael J. Wysocki 16ba08d5c9 device property: Introduce firmware node type for platform data
Introduce data structures and code allowing "built-in" properties
to be associated with devices in such a way that they will be used
by the device_property_* API if no proper firmware node (neither DT
nor ACPI) is present for the given device.

Each property is to be represented by a property_entry structure.
An array of property_entry structures (terminated with a null
entry) can be pointed to by the properties field of struct
property_set that can be added as a firmware node to a struct
device using device_add_property_set().  That will cause the
device_property_* API to use that property_set as the source
of properties if the given device does not have a DT node or
an ACPI companion device object associated with it.

Rafael J. Wysocki 97badf873a device property: Make it possible to use secondary firmware nodes
Add a secondary pointer to struct fwnode_handle so as to make it
possible for a device to have two firmware nodes associated with
it at the same time, for example, an ACPI node and a node with
a set of properties provided by platform initialization code.

In the future that will allow device property lookup to fall back
from the primary firmware node to the secondary one if the given
property is not present there to make it easier to provide defaults
for device properties used by device drivers.

Introduce two helper routines, set_primary_fwnode() and
set_secondary_fwnode() allowing callers to add a primary/secondary
firmware node to the given device in such a way that

 (1) If there's only one firmware node for that device, it will be
     pointed to by the device's firmware node pointer.
 (2) If both the primary and secondary firmware nodes are present,
     the primary one will be pointed to by the device's firmware
     node pointer, while the secondary one will be pointed to by the
     primary node's secondary pointer.
 (3) If one of these nodes is removed (by calling one of the new
     nelpers with NULL as the second argument), the other one will
     be preserved.

Make ACPI use set_primary_fwnode() for attaching its firmware nodes
to devices.

Rafael J. Wysocki ce793486e2 driver core / ACPI: Represent ACPI companions using fwnode_handle
Now that we have struct fwnode_handle, we can use that to point to
ACPI companions from struct device objects instead of pointing to
struct acpi_device directly.

There are two benefits from that.  First, the somewhat ugly and
hackish struct acpi_dev_node can be dropped and, second, the same
struct fwnode_handle pointer can be used in the future to point
to other (non-ACPI) firmware device node types.
