Currently the ACPI code doesn't bump the reference count of
the firmware node, while OF counter part does. Not that it's
a problem right now, since ACPI doesn't really use the reference
counting for firmware nodes, it still makes sense to make code
robust against any changes done there. For this,
 - switch ACPI case to use device_set_node() to be unified with OF
 - move reference counting to amba_device_add()
 - switch to use firmware nodes instead of OF ones

In the result we will have reference counting done in the same module
for all callers independently on the nature of firmware node behind.

Any comment on this? I would like to have this applied so I can do something
similar to the platform driver code.

Ah, I see, I missed LKP run on this, I'll send a v2 perhaps later on this week.

What's the relationship/dependency with this and the other patches
dealing with refcounting? Did the AMBA one land?

The OF refcounting is spread over platform code in unexpected places. So, we
have something like of_foo() bumps it, platform ->release() drops it. It sounds
to me as weird design to think of and AMBA is part of this mixture as it uses
platform_bus, BUT has it's own ->release(), besides the fact that it's used in
OF _and_ ACPI environments.

What I would expect to have is both are really agnostic to the fwnode type
and take and release reference in one place, but with OF <--> platform is
kinda more complicated that with AMBA.
