Generally
Reviewed-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wyso...@intel.com>
but I'm a bit concerned about the existing users of
platform_device_register_full() who may pass a valid DT fwnode to it
and not expect of_node to be set. Arguably, they should expect it to
be set, but then there may be some fallout resulting from this change.
