Not fully true. We have non-POD getters that are conditional. Moreover,
we have additional layer of Primary / Secondary fwnodes on top of that.

The caller of fwnode API is indeed agnostic, but under the hood it differs by
the definition (obviously due to natural differences between ACPI and DT and
whatever else might come in the future.

That's why we try 'reg' property for both cases first.

is_acpi_fwnode() conditional is that what I don't like though.

Agree.

Disagree. Conceptually resource providers can be quite different and fwnode API
*is* LCM for them.
