+ * device_create_managed_software_node - Create a software node for a device
+ * @dev: The device the software node is assigned to.
+ * @properties: Device properties for the software node.
+ * @parent: Parent of the software node.
+ *
+ * Creates a software node as a managed resource for @dev, which means the
+ * lifetime of the newly created software node is tied to the lifetime of @dev.
+ * Software nodes created with this function should not be reused or shared
+ * because of that. The function takes a deep copy of @properties for the
+ * software node.
+ *
+ * Since the new software node is assigned directly to @dev, and since it should
+ * not be shared, it is not returned to the caller. The function returns 0 on
+ * success, and errno in case of an error.
