Candidates to use a helper ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
acpi_is_property_guid(): seems like a candidate nfit_spa_type(): seems like a candidate
xfs_uuid_unmount(): it looks for dups and holes
lmLogFileSystem(): it looks for holes
Below just users where UUID is a member of structure ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
visorbus_match() has two deviations: it uses embedded member and according to code it allows having duplicate UUIDs, though it seems a side effect of not strictly written code.
publish_vbus_dev_info() tee_client_device_match() hv_vmbus_dev_match() hv_get_dev_type() mei_cl_device_find() ishtp_fw_cl_by_uuid() is_unsupported_vmbus_devs()
...and few more.
