This is one thing. The other is that in v5 you said this is to be a generic
function
where you can search from a middle of a device tree. This means that the
parameter should be
named "node" or "from" and the description needs to say "The node to start
searching from" +
seeing the lack of ->allnext you can mention that this is inclusive (i.e. the
passed node will also be searched).
