The lists managing the device-links can be traversed to find the link between two devices. The device_link_add() APIs does traverse these lists to check if there's already a link setup between the two devices. So, add a new APIs, device_link_find(), to find an existing device link between two devices - suppliers and consumers. Signed-off-by: Vivek Gautam <vivek.gautam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Rafael J.
