That's strange. I'm not a subscriber to that mailing list, but I assume that
shouldn't matter here? Strangely though the only mailing list these seem to have
made it to is the ALSA one. :( Will see if I can find out why as I've not
seen this problem before.

DT node names are case insensitive. The of.h header does provide a helper macro
which is equivalent to this, but that macro is part of the '#ifdef CONFIG_OF'
block. If I were to use it then it would cause non-DT builds to fail. I opted
for strcasecmp() directly as I didn't think for just this one scenario it made
sense to reorganise the of.h header with regards to the helper macros. Of course
if there are other opinions on this then am happy to listen.

Again this is a build related design option (I mention it in the patch
description). In a non-DT build there is no access to the acpi_data_node struct
(returned by to_acpi_data_node() call) so if we call this in that scenario then
the build will fail. I could have added some #ifdefs to the
device_get_named_child_node() function directly, but that would have been a bit
messy I think. To me it made more sense to have this helper function which can
be called regardless of build type, and for non-ACPI builds its definition
always returns false.
