Subject: [PATCH 1/5] drm/bridge: Add drm_bridge_find_by_fwnode() helper

Because ACPI based systems only has the fwnode associated, the of_node
member of struct device is NULL. To order to move things forward, we add
drm_bridge_find_by_fwnode() to extend the support.

Hi Sui,

Thank you for the patch.

Could we switch completely to fwnode, instead of maintaining the fwnode
and OF options side-by-side ?

Hi,


Thanks a lot for your review :-)

The side-by-side approach allow us to migrate smoothly,
the main consideration is that the OF approach has been
works very well, it is flexible and very successful in
the embedded world.

It seems that the fwnode API could NOT replace the OF
options completely. For example, the'of_device_id' and 'of_match_table' related things are always there, there
are large well-established helpers and subroutines and
already formed as a standard. Some part of it may suffer
from backward compatibility problems.

So I want to leave some space to other programmers.
Maybe there are other programmers who feel that using
OF alone is enough for a specific problem(domain).

But it increases the maintenance burden for the duration of the
migration. I fear the migration would span years, with nobody really
taking active care of it, and the OF and non-OF API will have a risk to
diverge.

fwnode is a superset of OF, so I don't expect issues switching from OF
to fwnode. For the non-OF, non-fwnode users, that's possibly a different
question.

Yes, and that's not a problem. OF drivers still use of_device_id and
of_match_table, even if they use the fwnode API. No issue there.

fwnode has been designed to offer the same API as OF for drivers. If
something is missing, it can be raised with the maintainers.
