[PATCH v4 2/8] irqchip/al-fic: use %pOF and raise init log level

From: Eliav Farber

Date: Thu Oct 08 2026 - 05:06:41 EST


Use %pOF in the driver's log messages, so that both the success and the
error paths identify the specific FIC instance by its full devicetree
path rather than by its bare node name, e.g.:

/soc/interrupt-controller@fd803000 initialized successfully in Legacy mode (parent-irq=3)

A single controller is described by several FIC nodes that share the same
bare node name (e.g. "interrupt-controller"), so the bare name cannot tell
one instance from another. The full path includes the unit address and
keeps the instances distinguishable.

While converting the parent-missing message, fix a grammar typo in it
("device require a parent" -> "device requires a parent").

Raise the successful-initialization message from pr_debug to pr_info, as
this single boot-time printout is useful when dynamic debug is not enabled
at this stage of boot.

v4: no change.

v3: no change. Added Reviewed-by: Radu Rendec.

v2: reworded to explain why %pOF matters (several nodes of one controller
share the same bare node name, so only the full path with the unit
address distinguishes them). Also switched from full_name string to
%pOF. No functional change from v1's "use full node name" patch beyond
the log level and the grammar fix.
