Why OF-centric code? No, please do it fwnode-based.

No issues for me. But the existing APIs in serdev are OF based. If uniformity is
not needed, I can change it to a fwnode based API.

Using fwnodes here shouldn't be an issue, even though serdev core assigns
dev->of_node, it will be converted to dev->fwnode when the device is registered.

Really? serdev.h has no OF APIs.
