I guess 99% is strong enough that it's unlikely we will break anyone so
fair enough to drop this attempt to guess the values.

Drop the reference to DT. It's correctly using generic firmware accessors
so should work fine with ACPI PRP0001 for example as well as DT.

Usually we just refer to the need for firmware properties.
There are lots of places they could be coming from.

I'd prefer the condition flipped even though patch will be more noisy.

	if (!dev_fwnode(dev))
		return dev_err_probe()...

	...

As end result will be more readable.
