[PATCH] dt: add of_get_property_value32 helper function

[Rob Herring <robherring2-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

From: Rob Herring <rob.herring-bsGFqQB8/DxBDgjK7y7TUQ@public.gmane.org>

A common use of of_get_property in driver is to just get a 32-bit integer
value, but the interface is a bit complicated in that case. Add a helper
function that just fills in the value.

So something like this:

	int len;
	u32 blah;
	void *prop = of_get_property(node, "blah", &len);
	if (prop && len == sizeof(blah))
		blah = be32_to_cpup(prop);

can become:

	u32 blah;
	of_get_property_value32(node, "blah", &blah);

The caller can check the return value if the property is required to be
present.

Grant,

I noticed most callers of of_get_property don't do be32_to_cpup on the
returned pointer. Most instances appear to be powerpc only drivers, but
should of_get_property return ptr be __be32?
