Provide a platform-specific variant of device_set_of_node_from_dev(). In addition to bumping the reference count of the OF node being assigned, it also assigns the fwnode of the platform device.Can we rather investigate the way how to make that of node reuse thingy (which is used solely by pin control) differently and then drop this confusing device_set_of_node_from_dev() call altogether?
No, that call is needed. See commit 4e75e1d7dac9 ("driver core: add
helper to reuse a device-tree node") for details.
