It seems too complicated for the simple fix.
As I said, just drop const qualifier and add fwnode_handle_get() in the 'else'
branch. This will allow you to drop if (prev) at the end.
fwnode is const, fwnode_handle_get doesn't accept this type.
I'm talking about parent.
You suggested this:
"Instead you might consider to replace
parent = fwnode;
by
parent = fwnode_handle_get(fwnode);"
It has compile warning:
drivers/base/property.c: In function ‘fwnode_graph_get_next_endpoint’:
drivers/base/property.c:1004:30: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘fwnode_handle_get’ discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
