Very similar indeed, down to identical problems ;-) Quoting your patch,

The documentation of the return value is a bit confusing to me. I assume that, 
by device node, you meant the DT node corresponding to the device of the 
endpoint which is passed as an argument. However, device node cal also refer 
to struct device_node. Should this be clarified ?
