+ * uclass_find_device_by_seq() - Find uclass device based on ID and sequence
+ *
+ * This searches for a device with the given seq or req_seq.
+ *
+ * For seq, if an active device has this sequence it will be returned.
+ * If there is no such device then this will return -ENODEV.
+ *
+ * For req_seq, if a device (whether activated or not) has this req_seq
+ * value, that device will be returned. This is a strong indication that
+ * the device will receive that sequence when activated.
+ *
+ * The device is NOT probed, it is merely returned.
+ *
+ * @id: ID to look up
+ * @seq_or_req_seq: Sequence number to find (0=first)
+ * @find_req_seq: true to find req_seq, false to find seq
+ * @devp: Returns pointer to device (there is only one per for each seq)
+ * @return 0 if OK, -ve on error
