    Driver core: Unified interface for firmware node properties · 8a0662d9
    Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
    Add new generic routines are provided for retrieving properties from
    device description objects in the platform firmware in case there are
    no struct device objects for them (either those objects have not been
    created yet or they do not exist at all).
    
    The following functions are provided:
    
    fwnode_property_present()
    fwnode_property_read_u8()
    fwnode_property_read_u16()
    fwnode_property_read_u32()
    fwnode_property_read_u64()
    fwnode_property_read_string()
    fwnode_property_read_u8_array()
    fwnode_property_read_u16_array()
    fwnode_property_read_u32_array()
    fwnode_property_read_u64_array()
    fwnode_property_read_string_array()
    
    in analogy with the corresponding functions for struct device added
    previously.  For all of them, the first argument is a pointer to struct
    fwnode_handle (new type) that allows a device description object
    (depending on what platform firmware interface is in use) to be
    obtained.
    
    Add a new macro device_for_each_child_node() for iterating over the
    children of the device description object associated with a given
    device and a new function device_get_child_node_count() returning the
    number of a given device's child nodes.
    
    The interface covers both ACPI and Device Trees.
