Setting fwnode->dev is specific to fw_devlink.

In order to avoid having a direct 'fwnode->dev = dev;' in several
place in the kernel, introduce fw_devlink_set_device() helper to perform
this operation.  
Makes sense, can you also mark that field as __private? So sparse can catch
the abusers up.
I didn't know about __private tag and related ACCESS_PRIVATE().
Indeed, It makes perfect sense.

I will add it in next iteration.

Thanks for pointing out.

Best regards,
Hervé
