What about when there are no opts? Do we require the caller to make sure
opts is NULL before calling the function (which sounds like a good
source of bugs) or do we clear it on successful return?

I think if opts is passed in, but there are no options, then it should
set *opts = NULL.
Yeah, oops.

There should be test cases for this also. Must set opts to NULL on
successful return, and (I think) should leave opts alone on an
unsuccessful search.
I would actually argue for always nuking the opts - since that could
(theoretically) prevent something working by accident in spite of
error conditions.

How about the below?
Perfect, applied with one fixup below...

Subject: [PATCH] of: add optional options parameter to of_find_node_by_path()

Update of_find_node_by_path():
1) Rename function to of_find_node_opts_by_path(), adding an optional
   pointer argument. Provide a static inline wrapper version of
   of_find_node_by_path() which calls the new function with NULL as
   the optional argument.
2) Ignore any part of the path beyond and including the ':' separator.
3) Set the new provided pointer argument to the beginning of the string
   following the ':' separator.
4: Add tests.
