[PATCH 1/4] OF: add a new phandle parsing function for grouped nodes

2013-04-30 Thread Guennadi Liakhovetski
Sometimes it is useful to group similar DT nodes under a common parent, when a different node can reference the group, meaning, that any subnode will do the job. An example of such a group is a DMA multiplexer, when a DMA slave can be served by any DMA controller from the group. This patch
