Thanks as always for your help - great comments. I'll work through and
make the changes you suggest to this code and also...

...I agree with your other email re. turning this into a series and
making the additional changes you suggested, so I'll do that too for the v3.
Just a couple comments / queries:

You mean literally just like /* Authored By: Dan Scally */ or something?
OK, no problem.

Yeah I was originally using the i2c_client's name field (this comes into
play during cio2_bridge_reprobe_sensor()) but the matching refused to
work using anything but a string literal. Let me take another look at
this then.

Trailing commas where lists can be extended, otherwise none - got it.

Oops - you suggested that in the last version too and I missed it, sorry
about that. I'll split those two failure modes out.

Yeah this is a good idea; I see you suggest a new patch for it in your
other email; I'll do a series in the future and add this to the swnode
source file at the same time as doing the changes that you, Heikki and
Sakari suggested for the other patch.

Somehow I got on the outdated page for compiling modules spanning
multiple files in the linux kernel module programming guide; it's
suggested there but not in the newer version. I shall remove it.

I thought you were hinting that I should use kcalloc in the comments
from the last patch to get an array of zero valued entries but I guess I
misunderstood - I can just memset these arrays to 0 and assign all but
the last entry directly and that seems to work fine, so I'll switch to that.

TIL - thanks, I'll do a pass over the rest of it and make sure that I
follow that everywhere else too

I avoided that thinking there might be a case where a CIO2 device has a
fwnode but not endpoints defined for some reason, but I'm not familiar
enough to judge whether that situation will ever occur - if it's safe to
do it that way then I'll switch it over.
