Note that this is effectively just device_match_of_node(), although I guess there is an argument that having a nice consistent set of component_match API helpers might be worth more than a tiny code saving by borrowing one from a different API.
Thanks for this tip. I could try use this, Let the maintainer decide.
Either way, however, I don't think there's any good argument for instantiating separate copies of these functions in every driver that uses them. If they're used as callbacks then they can't actually be inlined anyway, so they may as well be exported from component.c as
oh. The MTK iommu keeps this inline for long time... OK, I will try to move into the component.c and export them.
(Sorry for the late reply due to New Year holidays.)
normal so that the code really is shared (plus then there's nice symmetry with the aforementioned device_match API helpers too).
Thanks, Robin.
