Same question as from Greg: How does a subsystem know whether or not to use
this function?

Maybe I don't understand the comment, but as the commit message says,
subsystems can use this when looking up resources for drivers. Or you
mean that this information should be in the API docs?

I'm pretty sure what he's suggesting here is changing to "should always"
(ie, explain the situations when a subsystem would do this, including
decision criteria if it's optional).

Right.

Thanks,
