I did think about that, but the micro-optimizer in me didn't feel 
comfortable with the overhead of rerunning of_find_property() for each 
value.  I decided to run of_find_property() once, and then iterate 
through the individual values within the property.

If there are strong objections to doing it this way, we can change it.
