for people reading along, this simply duplicates what of_property_read_s32
already does, only for indexed properties.
But I do have one issue below.

I think this could very well live directly in the of.h header below
of_property_read_s32 or so.
As this also only calls the more generic u32 variant, it can be just a static
inline there and does not need to duplicate the whole stub voodoo, as the
of_property_read_u32_index will also generate the -ENOSYS error in the !OF
case.
