There seems to be conflict in the new function "of_get_cpu_node" added.
PowerPC also defines the same function name. Further microblaze and
openrisc declares it(can be removed) but doesn't define it.
To fix this:
1. I can rename the newly added function to something different like
   `of_get_cpunode` or
2. If of_* namespace should be used by only OF/FDT and not by any
   architecture specific code, then the arch specific version can be
   renamed to some thing like arch_of_get_cpu_node.
   Also most of the calls to arch specific function can be moved to
   generic code.

Let me know your thoughts.
What is your new function about ? Does it perform the same job as the
one in powerpc ? If yes, make sure you have the same signature and
either copy the powerpc one over to a generic place or make the generic
one weak if you don't want the powerpc thread counting logic.

Cheers,
Ben.
