It's already implied. See
static struct fwnode_handle *
of_fwnode_get_next_child_node(const struct fwnode_handle *fwnode, struct fwnode_handle *child)
{
return of_fwnode_handle(of_get_next_available_child(to_of_node(fwnode), to_of_node(child)));
}
And I believe it's written somewhere in the documentation (if not, feel free to
patch that).

+ ret = sysfs_create_group(&dev->kobj, &lm3533_attribute_group);No way. You should use .dev_groups.I did not change how driver does this, just swapped lm3533->dev to dev. I will set is back as it was.
This is a serious race condition that needs to be addressed. Since you are touching this driver the fixes against known issues probably are the first things that have to be done.

Can you think on how to split this change to smaller steps? I believe it's possible.No, I am done with tinkering with this patchset. It is broken enough and it has inflated enough.
Probably you don't want this to be reviewed then? I believe other kernel developers and maintainers will ask you the same. -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
