[PATCH v3 09/12] of: property: Simplify of_link_to_phandle()

[Saravana Kannan]

The driver core now:
- Has the parent device of a supplier pick up the consumers if the
  supplier never has a device created for it.
- Ignores a supplier if the supplier has no parent device and will never
  be probed by a driver

And already prevents creating a device link with the consumer as a
supplier of a parent.

So, we no longer need to find the "compatible" node of the supplier or
do any other checks in of_link_to_phandle(). We simply need to make sure
that the supplier is available in DT.
