[PATCH 1/6] of: Return -EEXIST from of_parse_phandle_with_args for holes in phandle list

[Andreas Larsson <andreas-FkzTOoA/JUlBDgjK7y7TUQ@public.gmane.org>]

Return value for an empty phandle was -EEXIST before commit 15c9a0ac, that
changed the return value in this case to -ENOENT. However, of_gpio_named_count
relies upon the return value to be -EEXIST and relies upon being able to
distinguish this case from the case of no list at all which also returns
-ENOENT.

Also change the of selftest to expect -EEXIST in this case.

I have not run-tested the selftest, not having appropriate hardware around for that.
