of_property_for_each_u32() is meant to disappear. All the call sites not
using the 3rd and 4th arguments have already been replaced by
of_property_for_each_u32_new().

Deprecate the old macro. Also rename it to minimize the number of new
usages and encourage conversion to the of_property_for_each_u32_new() macro
in not(-yet)-upstream code.

Notes:

 * The following files have not been build-tested simply because I haven't
   managed to have a config that enables them so far:

     drivers/irqchip/irq-pic32-evic.c
     drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-k210.c

 * These have not been converted yet as they are not trivial, and they will
   need to use a more specific function that does the lookup they need and
   returns the result:

     drivers/clk/clk-si5351.c  

I would do something like this:

Thanks for the suggestions.

I literally did not even try to look at what the code does in these few
places, and still haven't, simply due to time availability. But I wanted
to get a first series out as soon as possible as it would probably be
useful to Peng [0]. Yours will be a good starting point for when I
tackle those few remaining usages of the "old" macro. Thanks.
