Like Danilo I am also not sure what lock protects fwnode accesses.This is basically the question I asked to Doug. If he also don't see one, let's take this patch as is.
I don't recall using any lock for this purpose. IIRC, the original assumption was that device fwnodes wouldn't be updated once set.
