There are multiple locations in the kernel where a struct fwnode_handle
is initialized. Add fwnode_init() so that we have one way of
initializing a fwnode_handle.

In this series, I didn't find any extension of fwnode_init() to be it more
than simple assignment. This change looks to me like unnecessary churn and
obfuscation rather than improvement.

"...ops = &...;" is pretty standard in the kernel to initialize ops
structures.

Subsequent patches make fwnode_init() do more stuff.

But not in this series, right?

In this series. The very next patch - Patch 8/17 :)
