[PATCH] dt: add helper function to read u8 & u16 variables & arrays

From: Viresh Kumar
Date: Mon Nov 19 2012 - 23:45:16 EST


This adds following helper routines:
- of_property_read_u8_array()
- of_property_read_u16_array()
- of_property_read_u8()
- of_property_read_u16()

This expects arrays from DT to be passed as:
- u8 array:
property = /bits/ 8 <0x50 0x60 0x70>;
- u16 array:
property = /bits/ 16 <0x5000 0x6000 0x7000>;

V2->V3:
- Expect u8 & u16 arrays to be passed using: /bits/ 8 or 16
- remove common macro, as not much common now :(
- Tested on ARM platform.
