As I can see you support some extra args, that can be provided in the
feature-domain property. But in the binding description I see maxItems:
2. I beliewe this should be highlighted in bindings description.

IIUC list_for_each_entry_safe protects you from removing node during
loop. But all list operations are done under
firewall_controller_list_lock mutex. I beliewe there is no need for
_safe call under the mutex because removing node during loop is
impossible. I think it worth investigation if it's safe to use
list_for_each_entry_safe without lock.

Can we store all registered IDs that were found by populate_bus
functio, or is it expected when this function was called before
populate_bus call?
