Thanks for giving me these hints!

Following your suggestion, here's a working piece of the ranges parsing code,
how does this look?

const __be32 *ranges;
int addr_cells, p_addr_cells, size_cells;
int ranges_len, tuple_len;
u32 base, size;

p_addr_cells = of_n_addr_cells(node->parent);
addr_cells = of_n_addr_cells(node);
size_cells = of_n_size_cells(node);
tuple_len = (p_addr_cells + addr_cells + size_cells) * sizeof(__be32);

ranges = of_get_property(node, "ranges", &ranges_len);
if (ranges == NULL || ranges_len != tuple_len)
	return -EINVAL;

base = of_translate_address(node, ranges + addr_cells);
if (base == 0 || base == OF_BAD_ADDR)
	return -EINVAL;
size = of_read_number(ranges + addr_cells + p_addr_cells, size_cells);
