Yes, it should go into include/linux/fwnode.h, something like

DEFINE_FREE(fwnode, struct fwnode_handle *, if (_T) fwnode_hanlde_put(_T));

Then drivers can do:

	struct fwnode_handle *ev_node __free(fwnode) =
		fwnode_get_named_child_node(ch_node, ev_name);

and have it automatically be "put" once execution leaves the variable
scope.

Ah, we actually already have it defined in include/linux/property.h, all
the better.

Thanks.
