Hi Bjorn,

Thanks for your review. Please see my comments below.

This patch replaces the struct device_node with struct fwnode_handle
since this structure is common between DT and ACPI.

It also refactors gicv2m_init_one() to prepare for ACPI support.
The only functional change is removing the node name from pr_info.

You didn't change this, but I don't think this message has enough
context. It's pretty cryptic all by itself. It'd be nice if it could
at least include a device name, e.g., if you could use dev_info().

Here is the example of the information printed:
[ 0.000000] GICv2m: range[0xe1180000:0xe1181000], SPI[64:320]

Basically, the v2m is just an extension of the GIC. Here, we are printing the memory range that it is covering, which can be used to identify different V2m frame and the associate interrupt range (SPI). The node name is not really providing any values. So, we are removing it.

Thanks,
Suravee

If that's possible, I guess a separate patch would be appropriate,
since there are other similar things in this file.
