Hi Guenter, Thanks for your feedback! Reply below. On 08/13/2019 03:24 PM, Guenter Roeck wrote: > Sorry, I don't understand.

Thanks for this hint. Turns out wcove is the only user of fwnode_create_software_node(), and intel_cht_int33fe is the only other driver to contain the string "software_node". Please bear with us if we didn't know about this handy trick yet. And handy it is! device_property_read_*() is also really helpful to know about, as it covers both the DT case, as well as other firmware interfaces - thanks for the hint. Is there any reason to ever use of_property_read_*() anymore? I've applied your suggested changes, and will send another patch round soon (I want to try one last thing). Please let me/us know what you think once it's on the list. Max
