commit 09aa11cfda9d8186046bcd1adcd6498b688114f4 upstream.

This will prepare the device connection API for connections
described in firmware.

Ok, so this really needs to be 0-initialized in all cases, or we'll be
breaking existing setups. Are we reasonably sure that's the case?

Best regards,

Yes, I need to add two 0-initialization to the following drivers:
drivers/platform/x86/intel_cht_int33fe.c
drivers/extcon/extcon-axp288.c

In upstream, these drivers opt for fwnode node discovery instead of device_connection definitions.
I will do the modifications in v2.

Thanks,
Marian
