[PATCH v2 1/1] driver core: Keep the supplier fwnode consistent with the device

From: Herve Codina
Date: Mon Nov 13 2023 - 08:30:54 EST


The commit 3a2dbc510c43 ("driver core: fw_devlink: Don't purge child
fwnode's consumer links") introduces the possibility to use the
supplier's parent device instead of the supplier itself.
In that case the supplier fwnode used is not updated and is no more
consistent with the supplier device used.

Update the fwnode used to be consistent with the supplier device used.

Changes v1 -> v2:
Remove sup_handle check and related pr_debug() call as sup_handle cannot be
invalid if sup_dev is valid.
