The device and fwnode property API supports Devicetree, ACPI and pset

type was embedded in the fwnode property core. Move it out to firmware
type specific locations, making it easier to maintain.

Depends-on: ("of: Move OF property and graph API from base.c to property.c")

Mainly in interest of not growing fwnode_handle, we could remove .type
and just have checks like "ops == &acpi_fwnode_ops".

Otherwise, for patches 2,3,4:

Thanks for the ack!

The ops field is currently not unique for all types of fwnodes:

type			ops
---------------------------------------
FWNODE_ACPI_STATIC	acpi_fwnode_ops
FWNODE_ACPI_DATA	acpi_fwnode_ops
FWNODE_ACPI		acpi_fwnode_ops
FWNODE_OF		of_fwnode_ops
FWNODE_PSET		pset_fwnode_ops
FWNODE_IRQCHIP		NULL

We could define three more ops for fwnodes (ACPI_STATIC, ACPI_DATA and IRQCHIP). I presume the effect on the total memory consumption is still a positive one. Especially it does not increase as much with the number of fwnodes.

I have a patch but I'll test it still a little before submitting it.
