ACPI / bus: Make ACPI_HANDLE() work for non-GPL code again
Due to commit db3e50f3 (device property: Get rid of struct fwnode_handle type field), ACPI_HANDLE() inadvertently became a GPL-only call. The call path that led to that was: ACPI_HANDLE() ACPI_COMPANION() to_acpi_device_node() is_acpi_device_node() acpi_device_fwnode_ops DECLARE_ACPI_FWNODE_OPS(acpi_device_fwnode_ops); ...and the new DECLARE_ACPI_FWNODE_OPS() includes EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL, whereas previously it was a static struct. In order to avoid changing any of that, let's instead provide ever so slightly better encapsulation of those struct fwnode_operations instances. Those do not really need to be directly used in inline function calls in header files. Simply moving two small functions (is_acpi_device_node and is_acpi_data_node) out of acpi_bus.h, and into a .c file, does that. That leaves the internals of struct fwnode_operations as GPL-only (which I think was the intent all along), but un-breaks any driver code out there that relies on the ACPI subsystem's being (historically) an EXPORT_SYMBOL-usable system. By that, I mean, ACPI_HANDLE() and other basic ACPI calls were non-GPL-protected. Also, while I'm there, remove a tiny bit of redundancy that was missed in the earlier commit, by having is_acpi_node() use the other two routines, instead of checking fwnode directly.
