2015-04-03device property: Introduce firmware node type for platform dataRafael J. Wysocki
Introduce data structures and code allowing "built-in" properties to be associated with devices in such a way that they will be used by the device_property_* API if no proper firmware node (neither DT nor ACPI) is present for the given device. Each property is to be represented by a property_entry structure. An array of property_entry structures (terminated with a null entry) can be pointed to by the properties field of struct property_set that can be added as a firmware node to a struct device using device_add_property_set(). That will cause the device_property_* API to use that property_set as the source of properties if the given device does not have a DT node or an ACPI companion device object associated with it.

2015-04-03device property: Make it possible to use secondary firmware nodesRafael J. Wysocki
Add a secondary pointer to struct fwnode_handle so as to make it possible for a device to have two firmware nodes associated with it at the same time, for example, an ACPI node and a node with a set of properties provided by platform initialization code. In the future that will allow device property lookup to fall back from the primary firmware node to the secondary one if the given property is not present there to make it easier to provide defaults for device properties used by device drivers. Introduce two helper routines, set_primary_fwnode() and set_secondary_fwnode() allowing callers to add a primary/secondary firmware node to the given device in such a way that (1) If there's only one firmware node for that device, it will be pointed to by the device's firmware node pointer. (2) If both the primary and secondary firmware nodes are present, the primary one will be pointed to by the device's firmware node pointer, while the secondary one will be pointed to by the primary node's secondary pointer. (3) If one of these nodes is removed (by calling one of the new nelpers with NULL as the second argument), the other one will be preserved. Make ACPI use set_primary_fwnode() for attaching its firmware nodes to devices. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2015-03-16driver core / ACPI: Represent ACPI companions using fwnode_handleRafael J. Wysocki
Now that we have struct fwnode_handle, we can use that to point to ACPI companions from struct device objects instead of pointing to struct acpi_device directly. There are two benefits from that. First, the somewhat ugly and hackish struct acpi_dev_node can be dropped and, second, the same struct fwnode_handle pointer can be used in the future to point to other (non-ACPI) firmware device node types.
