I think we should move as much as possible towards firmware-agnostic
APIs and use fwnode_handle instead of device_node or software_node or
ACPI companion. To discourage this I think we better remove
firmware-specific APIs where we have firmware-agnostic ones and
eventually clean up drivers that use OF- or ACPI-specific APIs.

Thanks.
