Thanks for the review.

I understand the issue of unbalanced get/put, but given the size and
spread of this series, mixing it up with fixes may make it difficult
to review and may dilute its intent. This patch is a 1:1 of_node ->
fwnode conversion and keeps the exact same get/put balance, so it
should not regress anything.

If you agree, the fixes and pre-existing issues can be taken up
separately.

Akhil
