Sticking point; the ACPI version of .get_reference_args() returns
-ENOENT (converted from -EINVAL [1]) if the property you ask for doesn't
exist against that fwnode, which unless I'm missing something means this
won't work in our use case. This confused me for a while because we
definitely call fwnode_property_read_int_array() in sensor driver probes
through v4l2_fwnode_endpoint_alloc_parse(), but it turns out the ACPI
version of _that_ operation has no matching conversion of the error
code, so when that fails to find the property it sends back -EINVAL and
so the form that exists in fwnode_property_read_int_array() currently
works fine.


We could align them all to if (ret < 0 && !IS_ERR_OR_NULL(fwnode) &&
!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(fwnode->secondary)). This is probably my preferred
option, because I can't really see why we'd only want to do the
secondary check on -EINVAL anyway - but maybe I miss something here.
Alternatively we can take Hans suggestion so they all match the existing
code, but this means we have to handle that conversion first - I
couldn't see from a cursory look that any of the direct callers check
the value of the return beyond "is it 0?", but of course it could be
done somewhere in calls to the fwnode->ops->get_reference_args()
callback instead.


Thoughts?
