    firewire: core: improve check for local node · 92368890
    Stefan Richter authored
    My recently added test for a device being local in fw-cdev.c got it
    slightly wrong:  Comparisons of node IDs are only valid if the
    generation is current, which I forgot to check.  Normally, serialization
    by card->lock takes care of this, but a device in FW_DEVICE_GONE state
    will necessarily have a wrong generation and invalid node_id.
    
    The "is it local?" check is made 100% correct and simpler now by means
    of a struct fw_device flag which is set at fw_device creation.
    
    Besides the fw-cdev site which was to be fixed, there is another site
    which can make use of the new flag, and an RFC-2734 driver will benefit
    from it too.
