Is it possible to move these Cc:s after --- line below?

So, struct fwnode_handle is a single-linked list. Can we utilise that instead
of adding a new parameter? I.o.w. do those objects (@fwnode and @endpoint) have
anything in common and can be chained?

What does this mean? Is it idempotent? Or what is the effect of being called
multiple times?
