[PATCH v1 02/14] of: base: add of_parse_phandle_with_optional_args()

From: Michael Walle <hidden>
Date: 2022-08-25 21:44:59
Also in: linux-devicetree, lkml, netdev
Subsystem: open firmware and flattened device tree, the rest · Maintainers: Rob Herring, Saravana Kannan, Linus Torvalds

Add a new variant of the of_parse_phandle_with_args() which treats the
cells name as optional. If it's missing, it is assumed that the phandle
has no arguments.

Up until now, a nvmem node didn't have any arguments, so all the device
trees haven't any '#*-cells' property. But there is a need for an
additional argument for the phandle, for which we need a '#*-cells'
property. Therefore, we need to support nvmem nodes with and without
this property.
