Hi Rob,

It is preferred to use typed property access functions (i.e.
of_property_read_<type> functions) rather than low-level
of_get_property/of_find_property functions for reading properties. As
part of this, convert of_get_property/of_find_property calls to the
recently added of_property_present() helper when we just want to test
for presence of a property and nothing more.

Thanks for your patch!

This check is used to auto-detect if the standard property names
should be used, or the "renesas,"-prefixed ones.
As the last users of the latter were removed from DTS in v4.10,
perhaps I should just remove these checks instead?
