Both cases are extremely unlikely.
Although we have tested these two methods in the existing kernel code,
considering the evolution of the kernel code, these special cases may occur, so we are willing to take them into account.
We plan to modify the code like this:

 id = of_find_device_by_node@p1(x)
-... when != e = id
+... when != e = (T)id
+    when != id = (T)e

Do you have any other questions?
Thanks.
