[RFC PATCH 2/4] device property: Introduce helper device_get_reference_node()

[wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com (Kefeng Wang)]

With of_parse_phandle() and acpi_dev_get_reference_device(), we can introduce
a universal helper device_get_reference_node() to read and parse a device
property and return a pointer to the resulting firmware node.
