Plan to simplify this API implementation by * atomic * API
device_find_child() as following:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240811-simply_api_dfcbn-v2-1-d0398acdc366@xxxxxxxxxxx
struct device *device_find_child_by_name(struct device *parent,
const char *name)
{
return device_find_child(parent, name, device_match_name);
}

maybe, but the following device_find_child_by_name() also use (!parent).

this patch aim is to make these atomic APIs have consistent checks as
far as possible, that will make other patches within this series more
acceptable.
i combine two checks to (!parent || !parent->p) since i did not know
which is better.
