[PATCH] power: supply: Propagate of_node to child device

From: Vincent Whitchurch
Date: Tue Jul 04 2023 - 03:43:44 EST


Ensure that the dynamically created power supply device sets its
->of_node if the parent device has one. This brings it in line with
several other subsystems (see git grep 'of_node =.*parent.*of_node') and
allows easier identification of the device from udev rules and similar.

Before this patch:

/sys/class/power_supply# ls -l bq256xx-battery/of_node
ls: cannot access 'bq256xx-battery/of_node': No such file or directory
# ls -l bq256xx-battery/hwmon1/of_node
ls: cannot access 'bq256xx-battery/hwmon1/of_node': No such file or directory

After:

/sys/class/power_supply# ls -l bq256xx-battery/of_node
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 May 17 09:14 bq256xx-battery/of_node ->
../../../../../../../../firmware/devicetree/base/virtio@1/i2c/bq25619@09
# ls -l bq256xx-battery/hwmon1/of_node
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 May 17 09:14 bq256xx-battery/hwmon1/of_node ->
../../../../../../../../../firmware/devicetree/base/virtio@1/i2c/bq25619@09
