fwnode_device_is_available() is indeed called in
fwnode_get_next_available_child_node(), as I stated a couple of lines below.
My question on the other hand was how that is called in
fwnode_for_each_child_node(), as I could not see any call to check
availability in acpi_get_next_subnode().
That is what confused me about the _available_ macros being the same as
their counterparts without the _available_.
Could you please clarify that? Thanks again.
