Should this be

                return acpi_dev_prop_get(acpi_node(fwnode), propname, NULL);

without the '!'?

I'm also unsure about the '_present' vs '_read_bool' naming. IIRC we had
a long debate about this before we decided on 'read_bool' for DT, and
I don't really want to start a new debate, but being consistent would
be nice.

We could of course have

static inline bool fwnode_property_read_bool(struct fwnode_handle *fwnode, 
const char *propname)
{
        return fwnode_property_present(fwnode, propname);
}

which is completely redundant, but would help for drivers using the
interface to document whether we are checking for bool property that
we expect to be either empty or absent (_get_bool), vs checking for
the presence of a non-empty property (_present).
