The reboot-mode driver does not have a strict requirement for
device-based registration. It primarily uses the device's of_node
to read mode-<cmd> properties and the device pointer for logging.

Remove the dependency on struct device and introduce support for
Device Tree (DT) node-based registration. This enables drivers
that are not associated with a struct device to leverage the
reboot-mode framework.

Please use fwnode instead of device_node, so that the same thing
can be used with non DT setups, if that becomes necessary. Otherwise
LGTM.

To be more clear on this, have one question: the current unmodified
design of reboot-mode is dt based:

struct device_node *np = reboot->dev->of_node;
and then parses the node using for_each_property_of_node(np, prop).

We want to refactor reboot-mode to support non-DT setups by adding
support for fwnode-based approach (struct fwnode_handle *fwnode)?

Can you please explain a bit? Some more details would be helpful to
make the change.

thanks,
Shivendra
